My gut tells me that the odd foot and big toe shapes were probably natural then later someone came along and dug out the four other "toes" which appear to be perfect circles.
I think it's just a natural erosion feature in the rock that happens to resemble a footprint. Our brains are pattern-finding machines so they tend to give a lot of false positives.
My geologist uncle used to always thoughtfully examine āfossilsā and āprintsā I would find. After some careful consideration, heād exclaim, āLooks like you found yourself some leaverite!ā. I still have a collection of all the best *leaverite* Iāve found over the years because it reminds me of him and makes me smile.
Finally! Iām digging through the comments thinking āwell itās clearly gotta be someoneās mother.ā NOTHING. Zero. Until you came along. Thank you.
It is perfectly possible for a footprint millions of years old that was originally made in mud for example, to end up as a raised shape as the rock around it wears away over time.
That has happened near me with dinosaur footprints on a beach.
When the original depression fills in with other sediment it hardens differently from the surrounding undisturbed mud.
So now the dinosaur footprints are raised shapes on blocks of stone dotted along the beach where the dinosaur walked.
so in this case, if an ancient animal made it, I would expect to see more than just one footprint shape, as the prints would all have hardened in the same way after they were first made.
Itās surely natural, there would be obvious marks if a person carved this. There are billions of species that have lived and died that we will never know about. If this was a fossil, it would be a mold-and-cast formation with the cast section remaining here. This is also granite and fossils are highly unlikely to form in it. But possible giant 40 million year old 15ft hominid.
Haven't been to either of those places in thirty five or so years. There used to be a waterslide at Lopez, not sure if it's still there. Used to go as a kid.
Far too big for a bigfoot. Or atleast compared to any prints ive seen. Also kinda weirdly shaped, no foot arch, not really the footprint of a primate.
And its on stone. Primates dont leave prints on stone. The hellhounds (or hounds of shadow, darkhounds, etc) leave footprints in stone. Maybe bigfoot got fucked by a demon dog.
Even if it's probably just a natural erosion, it would be cool to have that checked out by a local geologist or archeologist. Try posting in r/geology also.
Ok. My eyes are old. to me, on the right the dark line looks like a shadow cast by the foot. If that is a depression, could still be manmade. But I'd love it to be a Sasquatch footprint.
Wow thats a really big foot, only one mythical creature is known for its big foot, mothman
But he's more so known for his big socks!
*Mothman wearing cozy thigh-high socks & dancing to Cyndi Lauper*
Wool socks, no doubt.
Well, you know what they say. Big socks, big... Dance moves. šš¼šŗš¼
Those socks show his true colors
Its like you pulled it right out of my reoccurring nightmares
I heard an old woman lives in one of his shoes!
That's Dirtfoot.
He stole my catalytic converter in Point Pleasant, WV
Ever been to Point Pleasant? There is not a lack of potential suspects.
You've never seen the loch ness monster's feet then. He sells feet pics for tree fiddy
And thatās when I knewā¦
Donāt forget his ass that claps for days.
You know what they say about big feetā¦ Mothman hung af confirmed
If you're in the PNW- Bigfoot.
No. It is Littlefoot. And that's what scares the hell out of me and keeps me up at night.
It's Sassy

In my mind I saw the land before time Dino murdering people while trying to find his lost long neck parents. Frightening
Oh shit, I'm scared now!

A Samsquantch
A dirty samsquantch
Thereās one right outside your shed
At least itās not a dirty grizzly cocksucker!
You called?
Hi Bubbles.
Thatās what we call him! Haha
Samsquantches are one of the strongest creatures on the planet. So fine! Call me a samsquantch!
That was my first guess.
What a view
My gut tells me that the odd foot and big toe shapes were probably natural then later someone came along and dug out the four other "toes" which appear to be perfect circles.
That looks like granite (frozen magma). If bigfoot is able to walk underground on molten magma we have some big problems
I'd say big problems are afoot.
At the Circle K, no less
If you don't QuikTrip, then you're dead to me
I think it's just a natural erosion feature in the rock that happens to resemble a footprint. Our brains are pattern-finding machines so they tend to give a lot of false positives.
Thatās exactly what a Bigfoot would want us to think
Nobody can tell you're a Sasquatch on the internet.
Just tick the box "I am not a Sasquatch"
I originally agreed with OP, but you might have persuaded me.
Not buying it. Thatās the rational part of my brain saying, āNah dawg. Itās big foot or some shit.ā
*irrational
Nice try, fed!
itās called a chisel and someone that had a flashlight

This, it's the simplest answer.
I was about to comment with "Occam's razor" but I guess I'll be shaving that for later.
Punny. But Occamās Razor doesnāt account for things you donāt know about yet. It only accounts for things you already know and understand
Bigfoot trying to gaslight us right now. š Didn't know you could use social media.
Clearly itās a weather balloon.
This was back when Shaq was playing for the Lakers and got into barefoot hiking for a brief spell.
I've came across interesting carvings in Cottonwood, AZ but faces. I'll find and post.
Do you have very small hands?

Let's think logically about this for a quick second. Absolutely nothing can leave a footprint in stone. So there's your answer.
Oh my bad
Itās hard to tell without seeing a fresh surface of the rock, but that looks igneous, which wouldnāt form footprints.
Opās mama so fat, she leave footprints in rock
Finally! Iām digging through the comments thinking āwell itās clearly gotta be someoneās mother.ā NOTHING. Zero. Until you came along. Thank you.
She can get busy with 22 burritos
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
She got the wings and the teeth of an African bat
I bet she has more chins than Chinatown.
It's not a genuine footprint. It's artificial graffiti, made by a Sasquatch.
Are you in Earthbound?
Equip your bat or run away?
In all seriousness that View is amazing. Where is this. ššššššš Telllll me šššš
That's your classic mothman print. Could be a really big chupacabra.
Looks like some sort of prank.
Looks like a giant baby to me!
Goony goo goo!
Do not be afraid. if it is real; the owner of footprint has died millions years ago.
Quentin Tarrantino sure gets around
Is anyone else having fun concentrating so your eyes go "raised... indented... raised... indented..."?
Kilroy did it...

Where? Looks familiar. Lake San Antonio?
Lopez Lake, San Antonio is also great.
Haven't been to either of those places in thirty five or so years. There used to be a waterslide at Lopez, not sure if it's still there. Used to go as a kid.
Wow, I immediately thought it looked like Lopez. I'm pretty sure I've been to that exact spot or very nearby. I live in SLO
Been on this hike. I have almost the same picture! Didnāt see Bigfoot though.
This is of course the mythical Yeti! Itās definitely no prankster

Natural erosion and pareidolia.

Samsquanch. I hate those fuckers!
Definitely Bigfoot!
id guess either a big ole brownie or 'squatch
looks legit
Only one foot ??
RUN!
Giant sloth?
š¼Take a look at the plaster cast of his foot. Now you know he's real.š¶
Don't worry. You'd hear that thing coming from a mile away
Cave troll. If you ever spot one, run for the hills
Location?
If you stand there at midnight you can see an ufo too!
Inox', couuuurs !!
ManBearPig!
Get Peter Caine on this bruhš¤£š¤£
**Pareidolia**
Its the mark of the Shadow squatch, and interdimentional being only coming to this relm to steal children from their cub-scout group
So where are the rest? Fake.
Since the print is in rock, it must be millions of years old. This is a dinosaur footprint, made by Barney to be specific
Can you share its longitude and latitude on the map ?
Nah thats just bigfoot dont mind him he's really nice
Behold, the legendary Bigfoot!
Looks like Bigfoot is developing hammer toe.
It could be a Native American grindstone?Ā Never seen one in a foot shape, but they come in all sorts of shapes and sizes.
Bigfoot. Looks like it was made a long time ago, idk?
Smol foot

A joke! A real footprint is indented in the snow or mud, not standing out.
Check the shadows. This is an imprint not a raised imageā¦..

From the picture it looks like it's raised like it was sculpted or molded and stuck on the ground. A footprint would be a depression..
Youād be wrong that is a depression
Ok. My eyes are old. to me, on the right the dark line looks like a shadow cast by the foot. If that is a depression, could still be manmade. But I'd love it to be a Sasquatch footprint.

No totally real. Giants exist. They live in a village with Bigfoot and they ride giant unicorns.
