Mentioned "unusual tracks" from Okanagan

[Cryptosaurian]

Just food for thought:

This one is from storyteller Dave Parker:
In early days, "I heard people talking about tracks going over the land----the kind a large serpent would make. I don't doubt for a minute what [Parker's aunt] told me. She wouldn't lie." (Source: In Search of Ogopogo by Arlene Gaal. Page. 122). 

And this from Inez Cooper, after her 1976 sighting. From late 1970's. Dsicovered a couple of unusual footprints in sand, "approximate size of one being 5" by 5" inches (noted as large as coopers two hands combined). location not specified but likely at Hot Sands beach near Kelowna City Park. 

What do you guys think?

I would love to see photos with something in the picture for scale
The problem with these stories is that, they are just interesting stories unless they produce some evidence

Yeah, unfortunately there no photos of these "unusual tracks". I too would love to see tracks of this sort being measured, with something in the photo assisting you in judging the size of the tracks....however, the one Cooper found was in sand so may be little difficult. I'm still watching and listening though...

We can only analyze the evidence presented to us
I enjoy many of these interesting stories, but I don't consider them evidence

Agreed. Evidence is something you can physically analyze, whereas with stories...the only thing close to analyzing is interpretation. Which is quite subjective. And at best, I consider them to be 'possible leads'. What do you think?

Depending on the source, they can be interesting leads

[Cryptosaurian]

True. I'm just saying it'd be nice if someone actually took the darn picture(s) and took measurements. That'd help us quite a bit but....that's in the past.

But, just in December of last year two researchers from Lake Champlain did find slidemarks indicating something low to the ground did make the tracks. Cope and paste the following text: www.academia.edu/19711983/Unknown_tracks_Found_Near_Lake_Champlain

Tell me your thoughts! Interesting but still not conclusive.
