Possible footprints found near Manistee
Account
While deer hunting, two companions found a single set of oversized tracks that were longer and wider than a size 9.5 tennis shoe, with about a six-foot stride. They observed the prints heading northwest through pine forest near a swamp. The witness returned four days later to photograph the prints and said they were unsure whether the tracks were Bigfoot-related.
