Incident #991810
Morganton, Burke Cty, North Carolina
about 1966
Account
Quinton told of seeing tracks on a dirt logging road that he could not identify. They had a broad heel like a sasquatch track and were as long as his arm from fingertip to elbow. Whatever made them was apparently responsible for tearing many of the branches off a small tree. "Hit must have been a big old thing, whatever hit was. Why hit had tore that tree up like I don't know what."
