Brian Vike Investigates Sasquatch Tracks In Northern British Columbia (Track Photos)


From Brian Vike's UFO Files.

A little history about Moricetown and it's kind people. Wet'suwet'en First Nation community is located north of the village of Smithers is called Moricetown, B.C.

The Wet'suwet'en people (kyah wiget) is one of five native communities living near or on Hwy 16. The valley around Moricetown Canyon was once a traditional fishing ground visited by five clans of the area.

Fishing the Bulkley River was a big part of the Wet'suwet'en First Nation way of living. The clans would first meet in Telkwa in the spring, mainly to visit and celebrate their heritage. Then later the 13 houses would pack up the village and proceed to Moricetown for their summer fishing season.

Using gaff poles (spruce tree pole with a steel hook and bound by rope) the First Nation fisherman would wait patiently perched high above the river standing on exposed river boulders waiting to strike and hook the fish as they swim by underneath.

Today, the First Nation still fish the river but use deep nets mostly.

In Moricetown, during the summer, the Wet'suwet'en First Nation people would erect smokehouses, drying racks and fish traps. The men would set out to catch fish while the women would hike up the mountain to collect herbs and medicines.

After returning the women would start to preserve the catch. In the fall, after catching fish the focus of the hunt would shift to mountain goats, ptarmigan and caribou.

Once sufficient preparation was completed, the Wet'suwet'en people would hold various feasts celebrating the harvest. The general meeting of all the people was an opportunity for the chiefs to deal with clan business and for trading goods among houses.

The feasts would last for days and would be celebrated by many houses. Many feasts later the clans would start to return to their villages in preparation for winter - each clan's departure date depending on the length of the journey back to their village.

Once home the clan would work on their longhouses, stacking firewood, and finishing repairs so to securely store their food on stilts inside. During the winter the elders and their wives would prepare for next seasons hunt and children would learn about hunting while maintaining the longhouses.

Moricetown is located 30 km west of Smithers and 31 km east of Hazelton, BC on the main highway of the region known as Highway 16. Follow the signs. Cannot miss the community.

It was just another early morning in Houston, B.C. I got up and turned on the computer and we went to feed the deer which were waiting as they do most mornings. I came back in, checked my computer and there I found a few UFO sighting reports which I still have to work on, but it was a telephone call that came in that grabbed my attention. A lady by the name of Melvina was so excited to tell me what had taken place in Moricetown behind her mother's home on March 8, 2009 after dark.

On Monday evening Melvina's mother heard an awful racket/strange and loud noise coming from the back of her property.

It certainly did frighten her as the sound was so very unusual and the dogs certainly were going wild over what was happening. She contacted her daughter and Melvina came down the next day to look into what took.

She put on a set of snow shoes and headed out into the forest. In the open areas, (not under any trees) the snow would have been approximately a foot and a half in depth. Under the trees the snow pack was only inches deep.

As Melvina made her way over the snow and under the low hanging spruce branches she glanced ahead of her to see tracks in the snow. Even from a short distance away the tracks appeared to be unusually large.

Soon she was shocked to find a large foot print that really should not have been there. Melvina did look around and after a short while she headed back to her mother's home, ran inside and told her mom what she had discovered and called the Peak FM radio station in Smithers, British Columbia as it was one of the closet media outlets. One of the staff members at Peak FM gave Melvina my telephone number and then she contacted me.

As I listened to her telling me some of the details of what she witnessed in the snow, I became more and more interested as I started to believe we may really have found something here. I asked when would it be okay for me to drive out so I could have a look at the tracks. Melvina said any time was fine with her.

Knowing the incident took place sometime after dark on March 8, 2009 and I got this call on March 9, 2009. I figured I had better get going as quickly as possible before bad weather moved in. I packed the necessary things I needed, and rang around some friends looking for some snow shoes.

I grabbed my backpack and headed out the door, into the truck and was driving out of Houston toward Moricetown here in British Columbia.

After my hour and a half drive I arrived in Moricetown and easily found Melvinas mother's home. There I met her mom, Melvina and three other family members. All were really kind to me, some bringing out there digital cameras to show me the pictures they took of the tracks.

After seeing these I was hooked and excited to get out to the back of the property to look around and see with my own eyes.

Five of us took our time walking over the hard packed snow until reaching the area where the tracks were discovered. To my surprise and excitement there they were, just as Melvina had told me.

Why I mentioned that I was surprised, is that I have taken many a long road trips to visit folks who have claimed to have had a UFO or Sasquatch encounter, only to find out someone's imagination was running a little wild! It can be more than frustrating!

Below is the first track I was shown. You will notice I do have a plastic ruler beside the foot print and this does not cover the entire length of the track. This one track measured 17 and a half inches in length and what appears to be three toes imprinted into the snow that can clearly be seen.

The width across the front part of the foot (outside of left toe to outside of right toe) measures seven inches in width. The arch part of the foot measures 5 inches across and at the back of the heel, this measured 4 inches wide. It sunk down 8 inches into the snow.


Next picture is another look at the track from a different angle.


Next picture shows the length of the stride of the creature which measured 3 and a half feet in length.


What I found really interesting was that there was a creek down a very steep incline. This was some steep hill and went a long way down to the bottom. The creature walked up the hill in about a foot and a half deep snow not breaking it's stride which were close to the same length, 3 and a half feet or better.

There was also another surprise for me, in one of the tracks at the back end of the heel, there we found droplets of blood caked into the hard snow.

This portion of the iced snow was dug out and brought back home with me so we could have it analyzed. Barb Campbell at UAD Research in Saskatchewan (Site Closed) will be receiving the blood sample and a hair sample for testing.

For the below picture, the blood never was tested, mainly due to the costs.


Next Picture shows trace with blood inside the track, This may have been blood from a Moose that did walk through the area. Made me wonder, was the Sasquatch following the Moose for food.


Next picture is a photo of a hair sample, although very hard to view. This will be tested to see if it is anything out of the norm. Update: Hair turned out to be a Moose hair. Thanks to Barb Campbell for her identifying the hair from a Moose after her testing.


Next picture is another photo of the same track, without ruler.


This gives an idea of what I was looking at, there are more photos, but I can't post them all.

I have added a few more pictures below.



The northern part of the province of British Columbia is certainly a hot spot for sightings of the Sasquatch.

In the latter part of 2008 numerous sightings were reported to me, also Sasquatch footprints were discovered in Burns Lake by a couple of Mormons.


Photos were taken of these as well. On my trip to Moricetown I found out about other Sasquatch sightings that have taken place in there last year and years past.


If anyone has been witness to Sasquatch, please send me an email with details of what you saw. Please remember to include the date and time and location. (Town/City – State or Province) and as much detail as possible.

Moricetown British Columbia Investigation Of Unknown Event

I did go to Moricetown, British Columbia on Friday, September 24, 2010 after receiving a phone call from a lady on the Thursday. Whatever happened in Moricetown, it took place on Tuesday 21, 2010.

The reason why I was contacted so late was, they did not know who to contact until a friend of the lady who called gave her my phone number and she called.

I will have a full report on this, along with photos coming over the next week. From what I saw, and from what I was told by the owners of the property and others who lives in the area, also hearing about odd lights being seen in and around the area for about a week.

I now wonder if this event is more UFO related. The foot prints/tracks whatever one might call them as it was rather hard to see them due to the time period from finding these tracks and until I got there. Plus something else odd, which I have pictures for, an area of tall thistles were bent over and touching the ground, many others were bent over, but broken. This covered an area of 30 feet by 60 feet, everything else around the down tall plants were standing upright.

Anyway, a strange case. Something else, we lost alot of evidence due to the heaviest rainfall we have had for months. I was glad the folks thought to cover up one small area with some bits of plywood. So some interesting stuff coming this week sometime.

Take care

Breaking News - Sasquatch or Something Else In Moricetown British Columbia

I took a telephone call today, late afternoon from a resident of Moricetown British Columbia. From the little I know, tracks were found in the ground and leading off into tall grass. The strange thing about this is, each track appears or is burnt into the ground. Sound strange, well it is.

I am heading for Moricetown tomorrow Friday September 24, 2010 to investigate the tracks. Pictures will be taken besides everything else I will do on location. So once again, we have a very strange case in Moricetown British Columbia. A full report and photos will be posted after I return and can write up a report on this case.

If you have seen anything like this in the same area please be kind enough to contact Brian Vike at: sighting@telus.net with the details of your sighting. All personal information is kept confidential.

Sasquatch Sighting At Moricetown, British Columbia - March 8, 2009

Posted: March 9, 2009

Breaking News !

I just got off the telephone as a person called me to file a report of something unusual that took place in Moricetown, British Columbia on March 8, 2009. From what I was told there was some kind of loud sounds coming from the back end of a person's property, this happening in the dark hours. The person told another family member who was there the next day about what took place and they went out back to check to see what may have caused this commotion. The person arrived at the fence line and did see where a Moose was present as tracks from it were visible. But, what shocked them was seeing large foot prints from something. They appeared to be human in shape and hair was found in the area as well. Also human like scat is in the area. Pictures of the foot prints in the snow were taken.

Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research will be heading to the area most likely tomorrow as I have to gather some things together.

On another note, I reported a Sasquatch sighting, or three sightings in Moricetown, British Columbia I believe on January 1, 2008. I ended up having no luck whatsoever talking to these folks who claimed to have seen these creatures. Well I will be finally speaking to one of the folks who had a run in with a Sasquatch in Moricetown while they were dropping a letter into a mail box. This meeting is set up.

I will get everything posted when I get back and have time to write everything up.

Take care

Sasquatch - Three More Separate Sightings In Moricetown, British Columbia

Posted: October 31, 2008

Brian Vike Director of HBCC UFO Research just took a telephone call at 9:15 a.m. on October 31, 2008 from a nice lady who resides in Moricetown on a Indian reserve. She gave me the contact information for a witness who had a large Sasquatch walk right in-front of her on October 30, 2008. Also recently on the same reserve, a Sasquatch was seen looking through the window of someone's home. I have the contact information for this. Lastly another Sasquatch was observed standing in a field and hopefully I will be able to get this person's contact. Actually it should be really easy due to the job the person has.

So three more Sasquatch sightings here in the Pacific Northwest of British Columbia. All the sightings took place between September and up to the end of October 2008.

I should have some details soon on this.
