Hiker finds tracks near Kelowna
Account
The witness was hiking with a dog on Dilworth Mountain in late afternoon when they found two side-by-side sets of large bare human-like footprints in melting snow. The dog eagerly followed the scent along the tracks into the trees, which alarmed the witness, who called the dog back and left quickly. The witness returned the next day to photograph the tracks but could not relocate them after rain.
