Possible vocalization and footprint found near Bachelors Grove Cemetery
Account
The witness and a companion visited Bachelor's Grove in the afternoon to check structures described in a prior report.

After the companion left, the witness found a large old footprint with visible toes and additional faint impressions forming a long-stride trackway.
