Three toed track found, grunting heard

The witness and two companions found large wide three-toed tracks in mud on a two-track trail near camp. They saw about seven clear steps spaced far apart on a slight downhill. They suspected a possible prank, and the tracks later washed away in rain.

Family finds large footprint, and hears unusual sounds

When the witness was about seven, the family found very large footprints on a Lake Superior beach. While leaving through the woods toward the car they heard loud screeching and something large jumping nearby without being seen. They left quickly in the car, with the witness feeling the source was too big to be people.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
