Kiseralik River, near Kwethluk
In the Bethel Census area of Alaska

On or about 6 July 1999, my husband, his father and two friends were on the Kiseralik River above Kwethluk, Alaska. They observed and photographed a pair of large wedge-shaped footprints deep in the mud near the water's edge. The prints are an estimated 12 to 14 inches long and were about 3 inches deep. No claws are evident at the tips of the toes. The prints appeared to be consecutive and were estimated at about 6 ft apart. Our friends are experienced outdoorsmen and neither one of them could identify the animal that made these marks. During this same time brown bear and wolf tracks were also observed. The area is very remote and no other boats were on the river that day.

The local trappers that have looked at the footprint photos say it's the Hairy man. The tracks are difficult to distinguish in the photos and they look bigger than 14 inches.
