The Olympus Track

 The Olympic Project is a sasquatch research time with the aim of collecting and analyzing evidence. One of their founding members, David Ellis, cast what he posited might be the track of an infant sasquatch. Unfortunately, I am unaware as to the date of the discovery. The location is also unknown, although I believe I've heard it was found in Olympic National Park in Washington state. 
The Olympus track is significant to the Sasquatch Print Project because it is one of the only alleged footprints to demonstrate defined dermal ridges. Usually, we would expect from any animal with hands and feet that their handprints would leave dermal ridges the most often. The same appears to be the case with the sasquatch, (or with sasquatch hoaxers), as most of the alleged dermal ridge images out there are attributed to hands or individual fingers. The Olympus track, however, is to be interpreted as a foot.
The dermal ridges seemingly present on the Olympus track are rather small, and as such, their full formation is not visible. Because of this fact, I cannot make any identification as to the type of ridges we are seeing. As a matter of fact, because these dermal ridges are on feet, no classification can be made anyway, as feet ridges do not have classifications in the same manner that fingerprints do.
Overall, the entire length of the ridges is around an inch, on a track that is 3 1/4 inches long. Make what you will of the images and the enhancements included.
