Possible nest found near Dawson Creek

The witness was hiking with two dogs when he found a low shelter made from fallen trees with woven branches. Inside and around it he reported reddish hair, many large fibrous scat piles, snapped branches, and a single large bare footprint. His dogs acted nervous and one erased part of the track before it could be measured. He left the area without collecting samples and has not returned.
