Exclusive Photographs From Record Breaking "Elbe Trackway" Site

| Casts of "Elbe Trackway" (Thom Powell) |
Thanks to Thom Powell and Joe Beelart for sharing the following photographs. These images are from the site of the "Elbe Trackway", first discovered by Scott Taylor on Monday on a beach along the Nisqually River near Elbe WA. If authentic, the 150-plus footprints could make it the longest Bigfoot trackway ever, surpassing the "London Trackway" from early this year by about 30 prints.
Investigators Paul Graves, Cliff Barackman of Finding Bigfoot, and Olympic Project founder Derek Randles “all agree” that the tracks are real. According to author Thom Powell, the fine sediments (called rock flour) from the glacial fed Nisqually River, along with the stretch of dry weather have preserved exceptional detail. A few of the footprints may be the clearest ever says BFRO President Matt Moneymaker. Powell claims the tracks collected by investigator Rick Noll and others early in the week may be some of the most finely detailed tracks ever found.
The mixture of small, medium and large tracks makes it an interesting find. Some tracks are merely 4-5 inch long, others are just 10 inches, and about 50 footprints are 16-17 inches in length. Powell tells us Guy Edwards and Cliff Barackman feel the small and medium tracks are human.
I Can't wait for more information on this fantastic discovery!
ReplyDeleteThanks Shawn.
Surely there would be some hair in or around some of those prints. (if real)
ReplyDeleteYeah all animals drop hair all over the place when taking a stroll on the beach.
DeleteAgreed 4:06:00. The assumption that only real if hair present is rediculous, my dogs are covered in long hair but they dont lose some after every step!! they would be bald after a quick run in the park!!!
DeleteThe article says, "The mixture of small, medium and large tracks makes it an interesting find. Some tracks are merely 4-5 inch long, others are just 10 inches, and about 50 footprints are 16-17 inches in length.

DeleteA skeptic is going to say that the smaller tracks are those of the hoaxers.
#LOONEYTOONS
ReplyDeleteIs that really all you can say?
DeleteLooney tunes is a moron!
DeleteIs he calling himself looney tunes? And what's with the #. does this individual like watching Saturday morning cartoons? Seems to point to his childish mental capacities. Looney tunes must be a man child in his 40's or early 50's since he is talking About LooneyTunes otherwise he would be into Nickleodeon or some newer cartoons!
DeleteYeah he must be a right bell end, I bet even him mum walks 3 paces in front of him on the way taking him to 'special school'!! Dont eat the paste now Loonytoons!!
Delete#spongebob
DeleteLooneytoons is Pepe le Pew.
DeleteI'm glad a reserved judgment on the single track from yesterday because that one looked a little to good to be true.This is a very good find if real but I wonder about the smaller tracks possibly being from a couple guys maybe a father and son using wooden cut outs on a stick.Will wait for more details.
ReplyDeleteBigfoot, Mediumfoot, Littlefoot, all skipping along the beach together...how cute!!
ReplyDeleteTime to put monies into Paster of Paris stock!
ReplyDeleteDon't the little one's go from on all fours to walking up right ! So where's the knuckle prints ?
ReplyDeletethe things were shapeshifting as they were walking...
DeleteThis is clearly a track were a man changed into dogman...
It could be Daddy Bigfoot, Momma Bigfoot, And Little Baby Bigfoot.
ReplyDeleteI bet these turn out to be fakes. The pressure variance between heel and forefoot do not look like something a 500 pound bipedal animal would make when compared to human tracks also found at site. That's the hoaxer's mistake here, they created human tracks (maybe in hopes to show variance) that can be used to compare. And where's a shot displaying toe splay? So far every shot we have been provided above could have been done with a wooden foot with silicone coating to create "dermal ridges".
ReplyDeleteI think its a safe bet that these tracks were all faked. The more exposure people get from things like the London track way, and finding bigfoot, the more nut jobs are out their faking tracks and hoaxing. They even have special bigfoot shoes that you can purchase over the net that are molded and contain dermal ridges. Bottom line, i think someone got envious of the london trackway, if that one was real, and decided to do this. Im sure we will see many more like it in the near future. So a whole family of bigfoots just happened to walk along a fresh beach leaving perfect tracks. Something that hasnt ever been cast, in the history of bigfoot. Coming right on the heels of the london trackway? Give me a break. This was hoaxed. Was team tazer involved?
ReplyDeleteYup. Faked. That's what I thought too. A family of campers along the beach having some fun.
DeleteFunny, envious of the London trackway? Who says the London tracks weren't made by hoaxers? Think about it. Which tracks aren't made by people, and how can you tell? Too much detail and they are hoaxes? Too little detail and they must be real? Goes along with blobsquatches, maybe they should be called blobprints; they're only real if you can't tell anything form them!
DeleteI thought bigfoots rode in jeeps? where are the tire tracks?
ReplyDeleteSo let me get this strait Bigfoot cover their tracks out in the middle of nowhere but when they take a midnight stroll on the beach they just figure fuck it who's going to catch on to this.
ReplyDeleteI really want these to be real, but I don't like those two pictures of the big tracks. They look so flat. I would think the heel strike would be more pronounced and deeper. Though I am the first to admit that this isn't my area of expertise.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they walk toe to heel.
DeleteHaha backward slide marks indicate bigfoot moonwalks. Confirms on all points!
DeleteI guess BF hides his tracks with smaller barefoot HUMAN tracks, how convenient!
ReplyDeleteTrackways are interesting but never really definitive for furthering our cause. Four years ago I documented a fresh snow trackway over a half mile long in North Eastern Washington. No way it was a hoax. Regardless, it wasn't a find that proves more than we already know.
ReplyDeleteFurther investigation indicates the ten inch tracks came from Scott Taylor who investigated the site in bare feet. The two sets or really little prints are indeed thought to be juvenile sas, according to Ron Moorheard, Joe Beelart, and Beth Heikkenin. Let that be a lesson: cast everything. Sort it out later. Best to all. --tp
ReplyDeleteScott investigated in bare feet? That's funny and confusing at the same time. Oh well. Thanks for the info
DeleteThom - if you make it back here. Was this along the Nisqually or Alder Lake? The photo above looks like the east end of the reservoir.
Deleteyes it was
DeleteI get it, lets not confuse anyone and walk around the tracks in our barefeet, that ought to lend credibility!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing.
DeleteYou would think that being an investigator, Scott would have known his being barefoot would have been a pretty crucial detail to let the others know.
DeleteIn the pic with the two right foot tracks together, the left track shows quite a bit of mid-foot flexability for a human. Very deep heel and toe with equal depth shallow across the foot arch. Also very wide heel and ball width. Does not look human to me.
ReplyDeleteAnd then I'll put on a bear skin and you take pictures, it'll be great!
ReplyDeleteI live in Eatonville, Pierce Co. Washington,where the most sighting are said to take place. Two years ago a friend and I left our driveway on Eatonville Cutoff Rd. between Mountain Hiway (Rt. 7) and Meridian Hiway (Rt. 161). The rural area has numerous homes on several acres, horse ranches etc., and although there are alot of homes, there is also alot of wooded forest. I was in a car with a male friend from Maryland who was visiting. It was afternoon, still light. We were between our driveway and the next house, about 10 acres of a large pasture inbetween, and woods at the back. The entire area fronting the road is fenced and has deep drainage gullies at either sides of the road as well. Cars often fall into these gullies and have to be pulled out by tow trucks. A person would never be able to jump the gullies and/or get over the fences without pausing and expending much effort to get into the pasture and continue on to the trees.
ReplyDeleteWe saw a very tall, upright creature whose form more resembled a human than a bear or ape. There have been no bear sighting in this area in years, although cougar and coyote are frequently in the area--Although living right nearby, they are almost never seen.The animal? was about 40 ft. away. It walked easily upright crossing Cutoff road, swinging its arms. It did not have short legs like a bear or shamble along like one. bears cannot maintain an upright stance for long and look very awkward--this creature did not, being very comfortable and fast upright. Also a bear finding itself on a road with cars would run on all fours, not walk upright, in an effort to quickly get out of sight. People here know what a bear looks like and this was not a bear. It was totally covered with grey/brown fur and was much taller than a man, 1-2 ft taller. When it ran in front of us we slammed on the brakes and stared in shock. A pickup coming the other way also stopped when they saw it. It easily leaped the gullies and horse fence and ran to the woods. By the time we got ourselves together, it was gone, into the woods between our acreage and the next farm.
When at the Plaza market in Eatonville recently, I brought up this article while waiting in line. I asked about 10 people if anyone had ever seen a bigfoot and 4 said yes. They said people had often reported these sighting and no one beleived them, so now they just live with it, but sightings are not unusual.
Someone like Jevning or Moneymaker should hold a town forum here. He might get alot of interesting responses. We are 30 miles from Mt. Rainier, a huge forested state park, and surrounded by dense forests and unfrequented habitat.
You say there have been "no bear sightings in years" then you say "people here know what a bear looks like" ...well, which is it?
DeleteNice story anon 11:04. I am from the Graham area and know all about the area and sightings out there. There are quite a few houses out there, but like you said, everything is spread out. There are a few sightings reported out there on the BFRO sight but I know of numerous people that have had encounters but say nothing. I myself have had exprience at Kapowsin and Ashford area. Hopefully these are legit. Our area has had quite the history regarding Bigfoot. Only time will tell. I've got my fingers crossed!
DeleteAnon 12:43
DeleteI've never seen a giraffe but I know what one looks like.
Ok, five years go by no one sees a bear. But the three years before that, ten bears were seen weekly. Now let's say the people living there have lived there fifteenth years. Do they know what a bear looks like? Why does every troll try debunking even simple logic?
DeleteThose are cookie cutter prints. FAKE!
ReplyDeleteThe are the same feet idiot. Do your footprints change shape with each step?
DeleteYes, everything is fake. The whole world is fake. Now get back to something constructive and meaningful, like video games.
DeleteWhatever! Video gaming- that explains it all. Your living in a fantasy world . No wonder u dont believe in Bigfoot.
DeleteDo you even know what a cookie cutter is?
Deletewhat a doorknob
Thom Powell looks like a drunk homeless person.
ReplyDeleteI went back out today with a buddy to make some plaster casts of the littlefeet. While there we really tried figuring the path out. This is what I gathered. The thing came in from the North and onto the mud. When it got to the bank cut it walked east along pool of water. Then it turned back north and walked back the way it came. It must have went back to the cut and walked west because tracks went that way too there was a gap between and from what we could make out was the tracks pointed each way. There was also two well beaten paths across the mud by people, so I think it might have done that. The littlefoot tracks did not go along the cut. If they did, they were totally destroyed by human tracks. The littlefeet stayed up on the flat and walked a circle around another spot that might have held water when the tracks were made. The flat is so trampled anything could walk on it and no one could tell. Same for rest actually. Anyway the little tracks turned out nice but I have some doubts about them. They look just too kid like. So I am going to cast my four year old nephew's foot and compare. If there was two adults with one going each way, that would explain it. Or I missed the spot where the tracks started and it walked the cut all the way then went up the trail. Which might be as the direction of the tracks going west was pretty tough to see through people prints. Derek is right about the berry patch. It is loaded. And they are sweet. I could not walk the path without getting snagged but I could not find any hairs either. Although I did not crawl around looking. So I still think the big tracks are bigfoot. Little tracks? Maybe.
ReplyDeleteWhen it turned north and walked back the way it came, it was out of the mud on the trail.
ReplyDeleteHow about this:
ReplyDeleteHave Thom and Matt go back to the site with a water truck and box of fruit. Spray down the entire trackway so the tracks disappear and then lay the box out in the middle. Set up a night vision camera and wait in a camper until they show up.
I was there the day Scott Taylor was. He was looking around like he had lost something. He asked my brother inlaw and I if we wanted to see something were probably have never seen before. We followed him after he came back from retrieving his casting materials. I was snapping pictures as he was mixing the solution. I was careful not to step on or around the prints. I saw and took pictures of the tracks before all the other prints were there. One of the pictures above does not resemble the photos that I have. I can see the prints have what appear to be a high instep. The prints that I took do not have that. The toes are also different. Two days after we were there we went back to check it out again. My sister asked if there was anyway to make a size comparison. So with this in mind I placed my foot (shoes on) next to the other track, pressed down, and removed my foot and took the photo for size comparison. Many people had been there in those couple of days so there was tracks all over the area. I saw more tracks in the mud. I believe those to be human tracks. Those tracks didn't match the others and had an instep.
