Hunter finds possible tracks just off a logging road close to Harrison Lake (w/photos)

The witness and his son were hunting and looking for sasquatch sign in a clearcut late in the day. The witness found a line of very fresh barefoot-like tracks on a gravel bank that made a sharp turn toward the road, with one showing a crescent of toes.

Possible tracks and vocalizations outside Lumby

Possible snow tracks found in Skagit Valley south of Hope (w/photos)

The witness reported finding very large footprint-like tracks in melting snow on a road south of Hope, B.C., with an unusually long stride.
