Possible track found and cast off a trail near Hocking River
Account
A couple hiking in a wooded nature preserve stepped aside for other hikers and noticed a large footprint off the trail. They photographed it and continued on. A short distance farther they found a small tree freshly broken in half and bent down, which they found odd given its proximity to the print.
