Hikers find large barefoot prints on the Elwha River Trail

The witness and a companion were hiking out after a multi-day camping trip when they found a large barefoot-like print in mud, with additional fainter tracks continuing along the trail, and took a single cellphone photo. That night while sheltering in a trail cabin with a poncho rigged over an open window, the covering was pulled open and a securing board was knocked onto a camper despite no observed wind. The witness noted the nighttime disturbance could have been a bear, but also noted a food-strewn garbage bag was left untouched.

US Army Ranger training mission near Greenwater finds large barefoot human shaped tracks

During a military alpine navigation exercise, the witness's squad stopped to rest at a stream and discovered large, deep footprints on a gravel bar and in soft soil. They measured the prints and stride with a tape measure and noticed occasional additional marks downstream before the trail ended. No maker was seen, and the squad leader suggested instructors may have made the prints as a joke.
