Family find fresh, barefooted, humanlike footprints.

The witness and three companions drove to the top of a ridge where fresh snow covered the road. A companion spotted large fresh tracks with toes crossing the road and going down a steep draw.

June 1994 Conejos County, Colorado Class A #1351

Various sightings by campers and ranchers along Lake Fork, a tributary of the Conejos River.

In early June 1994 the witness was fishing with two young companions at a beaver pond when an extremely loud gravelly two-toned scream was heard three times from a forested slope about 150 to 200 yards away. The witness judged the sound was not an elk or bear and left the area because the group was unarmed. The next morning the witness returned alone and found a line of very old large tracks but no definitive sign of the source.

Hunter reports finding strange tracks in the Everglades, near the area of the Dade County and Collier County line, between Big Cypress and Alligator Alley.

Several months after Hurricane Andrew, the witness and companions were hog hunting from swamp buggies near Big Cypress. After driving through the area overnight, the witness found large human-like bipedal tracks in mud near a water pool, with unusual depth and stride, and later found fresh tracks at the same spot and another set miles away. The group videotaped the tracks and compared them with their own footprints. No creature was seen, and the witness later wondered whether the tracks were from a skunk ape or a prank.
