That was an episode from the show Monster quest, filmed late November, early December 2008. A very interesting expedition.

Dr John Binderson is the man ! in that video with the collection and sighting maps that I want to meet.
I would be honored to meet him and get a tip for pointed expeditions , he has to have valuable insight that could narrow a search (somewhat) with the amount of time / effort he has put into this including the "bigger" foot casts he has on hand.

Capt Morgan that would be most invaluable I could sure use his tips ! , I'll message my email.
I have a thought of using a topographical map to find the epicenter of the numerous secluded areas to search. Such as areas with access to low tide clam beaches and decent sized salmon spawning streams. Somewhere big enough to support a family of 9 foot 1000lbs heavy eaters.
Finding terrain that can support a family of them may be more effective then looking in remote spaces.

I don't see the two being different, but the same. I'm looking for a safer area where they might hunt and eat, and a better place for me to be seen and heard, and a better place to record and not have human interruption. If this weren't the case I could just park by the side of the road any old place and have a beer, save some gas money.
I use topo maps and spend a voracious amount of time spinning the terrain around on google maps.

I also use google maps for its satellite images to get coordinates to mark on a garmin with topo maps that I use for guidance.
Although for me I have been doing prospecting and mountain hiking.
Im thinking a good time to look is when a salmon run is in progresss

That would be awesome if you could pass on that information to us, Captain. I've been quite interested in investigating and researching the Island's cryptid reports for a while-----well, ever since the BCSCC went to Cameron Lake in '09 and 2010; please do pass on that information to us when you have the chance.

We haven't caught up yet, but when I do I'll be happy to pass on any nuggets of knowledge he volunteers.
