Riley said the print was about a week or so old having been made sometime in early March, but it still showed the imprint of a heel and toes in the dried mud. Some people believe Bigfoot is nothing more than an unsubstantiated legend, but others feel there is enough evidence to warrant further scientific research.
Whiteriver - It did not take long after the snow began melting for Bigfoot to make his/her emergence from the hills surrounding Whiteriver.
A.K. Riley, former lawman in the community and renowned Bigfoot investigator, found a cache of new prints in the hills surrounding the area, saying he discovered them about middle of last week.
Riley gave
The Independent exclusive access to the prints, which came out of the dense, brush-covered hills overlooking Whiteriver onto an extremely rough dirt trail/road, leaving around 20 feet of them before crossing over to the other side and continuing for about another 30 feet or so and then disappearing into the woods.
Riley said he was in the area performing his normal searches for signs of Bigfoot when he came upon the fresh prints, indicating the creature may be on the move again with the snow melting and it being easier to move about in the rough terrain.
