Yeah guys sorry trying to figure out how to add the photos. Here is the story. My girlfriend and I decided to go for a hike this morning. We stopped at the Canopy trail and decided to walk the nature trail to the left. We were the first ones at this trail and had it all to ourselves. We got about 20 minutes into the trail and saw some wild turkey and took some pics but nothing out of the ordinary. Towards the back of the trail we came to a boardwalk that crosses a marshy flatland but we haven’t had any rain in awhile so it was dry. As we were crossing I was looking down and noticed what appeared to be a footprint rather large in size right off the boardwalk. So I thought hmm let me check the other side to see if there is one to match. And I looked down and there was as if someone crossed the boardwalk. So I thought well someone probably jumped down off the boardwalk and walked the dry marsh. So I stepped down and noticed right away I didn’t make such a deep impression so whatever this was was heavier. I’m 250 lbs I barely left a print. the print was slightly larger than mine and you could see toe markings. It was around 13 inches. It headed south so I decided to follow and found another about 4 ft apart and snapped another picture. Some were 6 ft apart. I followed the track to the tree line where I lost the track which was about 3 – 400 yards away. Most of the tracks weren’t great on my camera but I got about 5 – 6 good pictures that I sent to Sasquatch chronicles on Instagram and messaged them there. There were a lot of places where the wild hog were rooting as well. I also noticed some dry large snails that were cracked in half and crushed and others that weren’t. Again could of been from the wild hogs. I’m going to return to the area in a few days and do some off trail hiking in the woods where the tracks led to see if I find any other evidence.
