Just found this video. Very germane to the topography being discussed.

Toy Claymores are available on Amazon for about $50. Trip wire or short range remote control ( if they see the trip wire, they will use the trees ). UV ink is available. Load your own plastic spheres are available for paintball ops. If sprayed with pink paintball goo, the other wood apes will laugh and give up their location.

From a Wikipedia article about Beringia: A reconstruction of the sea-level history of the region indicated that a seaway existed from c. 135,000 – c. 70,000 YBP, a land bridge from c. 70,000 – c. 60,000 YBP, an intermittent connection from c. 60,000 – c. 30,000 YBP, a land bridge from c. 30,000 – c. 11,000 YBP, followed by a Holocene sea-level rise that reopened the strait. Post-glacial rebound has continued to raise some sections of the coast. So 130,000 years ago, if that's assumed precise, it'd been here a while if it came over land, not across water. One possibility is they are simply wrong about how early H. sapiens left Africa. The remaining evidence does not have to tell the full story, much may have been lost .. much HAS been lost, we just don't know which parts.

Wrong. From Nature: A 130,000-year-old archaeological site in southern California, USA " ..... Th/U radiometric analysis of multiple bone specimens using diffusion–adsorption–decay dating models indicates a burial date of 130.7 ± 9.4 thousand years ago. These findings confirm the presence of an unidentified species of Homo at the CM site during the last interglacial period (MIS 5e; early late Pleistocene), indicating that humans with manual dexterity and the experiential knowledge to use hammerstones and anvils processed mastodon limb bones for marrow extraction and/or raw material for tool production. "

I think it is for the same reason as always: sasquatch DNA is so close to ours that it will always come back as human contamination rather than something novel. Without a type sample for precise comparison, that is the most reasonable conclusion and it is probably impossible without a type sample to come up with a test that definitively separates one from the other. IMHO this result shouldn't be a surprise.

A good read - as others have stated this isn't documentation that is going to convince the world of anything - but I feel the book belongs on the recommended reading list.
