Account
Ken Kristian, a fishing guide, said that Danny Gerak, who owns Pitt Lake Lodge, about 3 miles up the upper Pitt River, saw tracks crossing a land bridge in a fast, deep creek, with a stride longer than he could span. There were four tracks, and a skin imprint was visible in them. They disappeared on rocks.
