Summary

First, we meet John at the location of his bigfoot sighting along the river in York County, PA. John is of Native American heritage and, when the creature walked into the light of his lanterns while he was fishing, he used traditional sign language – and the creature signed back! John also shares some other local stories from friends who had encountered creatures in the area. Next, we talk to Sondra and Chad who found a trackway of huge, anomalous three-toed tracks on the Chestnut Ridge.
