First-hand Oregon Bigfoot #560

Tracks found by fishermen

2 August 2003 Ronald/Darrington, Snohomish County, Washington 1 witness

Account

The witness was fishing with a companion on the upper Cle Elum River and walked upstream to look around a bend. On low-water gravel and hardpack sand near a side channel, the witness found three large, wide barefoot-like prints in sequence with very long strides. The witness compared the depth to boot prints and felt the strides could not be replicated, but did not tell the companion at the time.
