Camper photographs possible footprints at Lena Lake in the Buckhorn Wilderness

The witness was backpacking with a relative and a group at an alpine lake and went to explore the shore alone in the evening. She found many barefoot prints of different sizes that were unusually deep in mud and showed what she interpreted as a mid-tarsal break. She tested the mud firmness against her own weight, followed the prints from the water into gravel and rocks, and concluded they were not human.

Hoh Rain Forest print photographed

The witness and companions were hiking in the Hoh Rainforest when they found a large footprint in mud. The witness compared it to his own boot, noting it was slightly longer and much deeper than a hard stomp he made. A second, smaller partial print was found farther along the trail. The witness photographed the clearer track for scale.

Hiker photographs track on trail in Hoh River rainforest, on the Olympic Peninsula

The witness and his wife were hiking a busy trail in the Hoh rainforest in daylight when they found a bare human-like footprint. The witness photographed the print with his boot for scale and later described it as about 11-12 inches long with squared-off toes. He initially dismissed it because of heavy trail traffic but submitted it years later after seeing a similar track report.

Man remembers his daylight sighting of a bigfoot standing on a stump next to Discovery Bay

The witness, traveling with four companions for target practice, left the truck and saw a tall upright figure standing on a stump overlooking the bay. The figure turned to look at the witness, stared, then turned away, turned again after the witness shouted, and walked quickly into dense forest. The companions did not see the figure but all later found prints, heard crashing branches, and noticed a faint unusual odor.
