Follow-up investigation report by BFRO Investigator Scott Taylor:

I interviewed the witness in person. He was able to clarify exactly where the footprint was found. The footprint was approximately 16" long and 5" wide. There was the hint of toes, but water was running over the print, which would make the print quite fresh.

The witness is a professional in the medical field, therefore, unlikely to risk his reputation with reporting a hoax. Also, there were five people in the group who also saw the print. They were off-trail in a place that is unlikely to be a set-up. The witness is an extremely experienced outdoorsman, having hunted, fished, hiked and camped in the area all his life. He knows all the local animal track types, and is unlikely to be fooled or to misidentify a track.
