Bigfoot in the Boundary Waters?

Popular Sasquatch-tracking blog Cryptomundo links today to footage shot in Ely back in January. On the video (original and close-up), a big hairy biped staggers through a snowy ditch in the wee hours of the morning.

Sorry, Cody. Gerg beat you to it.

Um, that's not a Sasquatch. That's a geocacher.

Yes, I am a yeti!

The fact that a Sasquatch-tracking blog even exists really, truly makes my day.

That's no sasquatch. That's a bleeping gorilla. Known to frequent Ely during the winter months. Sheesh, I can't believe you people can't tell the difference.

Correction, Bleeping's Gorillas generally frequent the Apostle Islands during their winter mating season.

That's a Timber Monkey.

The fact that a Sasquatch-tracking blog even exists really, truly makes my day.

Amen to that!

I thought it was one of those hunt for the Medallion in the St. Paul Winter Carnival.

"Damn....thought for sure it would be under the tree."

It's Steve Marsh!

Uhhhh, that's a bear, but I think I can see the virgin Mary in its fur...

First, what is this guy doing at 4:30 AM with his video camera? Smells like a hoax to me. The image is indistinct enough.

To me it looks like a guy in a bear suit, but what do I know?

hello? it's ely. whatever it is, it's probably piss drunk.

I wonder if Ely has a larger per capita alcohol consumption rate than the Yukon Territory.

I went to high school with Bigfoot. He was from Ely, so he was probably visiting family up there.

I keep waiting for him to show up on Reunion.com so I can drop him a note to see how he's doing, but it hasn't happened yet. He never shows up at class reunions. I think it's because he got teased a lot in 10th grade.

Whatever it is, its not very glaceful. Looks drunk to me. I can't believe I'm commenting on this.
