Hikers find footprint in Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park

Account

While hiking a trail with a companion to look for the source of prior night sounds, the witness found a single fresh barefoot-like print beside the trail. The witness compared it to a shoe, tried to duplicate the depth, took video and outlined it with sticks for photos, then left quickly as it grew dark. The area also had large fallen-tree formations and abundant deer tracks.
