This article by Kathy Heicher was in the paper the other day.
Saw it here (on the BFF) last week, now I can not find it. Huh. Anyway, they made a contraption and put sandbags on it to see how deep it went. Got up to 800 pounds and that is the depth of the tracks found. (Not super scientific - moisture content of the riverbanks probably were not the same in the fall compared to the spring, for one)
The Eagle County tracks of 2000 were investigated originally by Keith Foster and his analysis was that the tracks were made by something between 700 and 900 pounds. There is a thread about it on the BFF. I'm good friends with Bill Brice's (the man who found the tracks) neighbor. The day he found them, he went over to my friends house all excited asking if he wanted to check them out. My friend was too busy with his newborn, but his father went to check them out. Here is what he said - "They were within walking distance of my townhouse. My son was only a baby and I couldn't break away to go with them. Bill Brice SWEARS by it though.So does my dad who hold a PHd. in chemistry. I wish I had gone."
What is sort of strange is that a couple years after he (Bill Brice) found those tracks, he had a son. His son tragically died at the age of one of some rare disease. Didn't the native american people believe that seeing a sasquatch was bad luck?
There are other parts of the episode as well. Should be a good one. The flight portion has yet to happen. Perhaps sometime within a month.

Yep. That's the one. Not sure why I could not find it, but I took 10 minutes and could not. Thanks Tim and Tug!

Some tribes may have, just as some said they were Cannibals, and some said Guardians. IMO generally they looked at it as a sign, a good Omen if you will I think. It had meaning when they showed themselves, great meaning.
