Man and son find tracks that lead to a concealed cave entrance.
Account
The witness and a relative were day-hiking on an old forest service trail hoping to photograph wildlife. They noticed large but not fresh tracks and began checking the surroundings more closely while following the direction of the tracks. The relative then spotted a small cave or opening at the base of a large rock with sticks placed over its entrance, described as freshly broken. The report ends with a stated wish to return with a motion camera.
