Man sees and photographs large print on shore of Lake Tahoe
Account
Two people walking a gravel beach at Lake Tahoe found a very large, deep print in the beach gravel, with other less clear prints nearby. The best print had stones on the bottom highly compressed as if by great weight and was part of a straight trackway from near the dock toward the water. The witness emphasized its depth and large size compared to a human foot and said they could not make a similar track.
