Bigfoot Now Being Tracked by GPS

by Amar Toor on October 30, 2009 at 07:30 AM

If Bigfoot walks in the forest, but there's no GPS device around to track him, does he make a sound?

Dissatisfied with grainy, exigent evidence of his existence, a team of "Sasquatch enthusiasts" have set out to find Bigfoot once and for all. And this time, they're armed with GPS. Members of the lovably titled Sasquatch Watch of Virginia recently camped out in West Virginia's Allegheny Mountains in hopes of catching the eternally elusive, or just plain mythical, creature. Armed with GPS navigation systems, cameras, and voice recorders (and plaster of Paris, of course, to make casts of any Big-footprints they might stumble across), the team was hunting in areas where several sightings had previously been reported. Tragically, though, the hunters came up empty-handed. West Virginians haven't been able to sleep since.

It's not really clear how exactly they used the GPS system (Do you just enter 'Sasquatch' as your destination?), but we sort of hope that it guided them with one of those peculiarly adorable voices. And we sort of hope it was Bob Dylan's. Not really sure why, just seems appropriate somehow. [From: CNews]
