Follow-up investigation report by BFRO Investigator Ontario Richardson:










On Sunday, February 16th this area had been receiving heavy snow and wind for about 24 hours, totalling approximately 7” of now. There was a standing 12”, which had turned into a thick crust. The land owner was walking through his property looking at deer tracks and beds when he noticed a very narrow path of large foot prints in the snow. They cut through several deer beds. The tracks were approximately 7’ – 8’ apart, totalling about two strides of the landowner. He followed them for approximately 150’ until they became unrecognizable.

There was only a very thin layer of snow filling the tracks, leading to the idea that the creator had recently passed through the area but leaving out enough detail to unequivocally say what left them behind.

The family owns approximately 30 acres of hemlock forest, surrounded by 500 acres of trust land, apple orchards and crop fields, which undoubtedly provide food for the resident animals. Deer, coyote, bobcat and bear are abundant in the area, with the occasional moose. The family had recently built a house on the land. A brook cuts through the property, providing water. It is near several conservation areas and wildlife refuges.

Notes from Investigator Matt Moneymaker

These are definitely not moose tracks. These tracks were made by a very tall bipedal creature -- much taller than an average human.

There have been other instances of bigfoot snow tracks found in other parts country during snowstorms. It seems bigfoots are aware that falling snow will soon cover their tracks so they will not go out of their way to take routes where humans are less likely to notice their tracks. They will walk right along trails or roads with no care.

If the snow is not falling and they want to avoid leaving tracks they can walk among trees and step over trails or hop across roads. You can see from these tracks how this very tall bigfoot would easily be able to step over this if it wanted to.
