Mt. Hood Photos: New Ones

Some new photographs have come in from the Mt. Hood, Oregon game-cam team of Kendall and Martin. The camera has been moved up to a height of 42 inches, even though the manual recommends 36 inches, due, in large part to comments here.

First, however, an on-site regular photo of a newly discovered deposit of fecal matter found near the camera is displayed directly below. It was a large pile of scat found about 300 yards from the camera; also deer bones were discovered 25 yards from the scat.

Recently, an elk was photographed, but we can’t upload the videoclip because of size configurations. It came right up to the game-cam and apparently decided to have some direct investigative interactions with the lense. The following is the one specific close up of that incident. It is followed immediately by the cam photos of the elk coming towards the camera and then away from it, the before and after of the close-lense event.

There was definitely a close encounter of the elk kind.

These are useful to compare with the original "Bigfoot mystery" photo, which, of course, shows a furry blob and no one knows what was captured in that now well-known image.

The original unknown object photograph, the mystery one first discussed here, is below.

So, you’ve seen them both, side by side? Any new ideas on what the mystery photograph might be?
