Incident #991199
Hillsdale, Hillsdale Cty, Michigan
Feb 1989
Account
Tracks were found in Lost Nations 10 miles Southeast of Hillsdale. Deputies from Hillsdale County and a Department of Natural Resources officer investigated and one cast was made. Art Kapa and Doug McCoy were there 13 days later, a lot of damage done by freezing and thawing and by people walking on the tracks. They could be followed for about 3/4 mile, mostly uphill, showed apparent toe movement, and sank as deep as 2 inches. Officials considered them fake. Kapa and McCoy doubt this, despite extreme size.
