Incident #1000687
Glacier, Whatcom Cty, Washington
1952
Account
Rod Pullar says that in 1952 snow rangers from Glacier saw big human-type footprints coming staight down off Mt. Hermet and around the Mt. Baker ski area. I have no map showing Mt. Hermet, but there is a 6285-foot bump near the ski area that shows no name.
