Incident #1000837
Colville, Stevens Cty, Washington
Nov 1974
Account
Gary Larson, a Washington State University student, told Dr. Krantz that he and another student, Gary Butler, had encountered five or six prints in deep snow-slush, later frozen and covered by new snowfall. They went diagonally up a shallow slope on an almost-bare ridge, heading for some trees. Site was a few miles Southwest of Colville. Krantz' letter refers to tracks as those of the cripple-footed Bossburg sasquatch.
