Default Weird Marks in the snow

Anyone got any idea what might have made these marks/prints? There are a quite a few of them around our front yard - they're about 7 inches long and six inches wide ..

Ian, it looks like something the wind made.

Looks like you're entertaining Sasquatch in your back yard! LOL!

Would the wind create marks all the same size - and all with 5 "streaks"?

Don't think we have Sasquatch here on the E coast Mia - they're all out west ...

It looks like the lines are ridges (raised above the snow) not depressions caued by weight. The area between the ridges looks about the same height as the surrounding snow. If this is accurate it can't be a track.

The lines are the indentations, Dan, though it doesn't look like that on the picture. Indentations are maybe 1/2 an inch deep ..

There's a cluster of 5 or six of these fairly close together and a few partially covered by blown snow about 20 feet away ..

I was only kidding! I actually don't believe in Sasquatch anyway. I think really it's a miniature snow drift. Ever see those pictures of a dessert where there are ripples in the sand? Looks like you have the same thing, but with snow. Maybe if there are some trees or something else nearby, the wind had just the right angles to create these little marks.

I agree on the snowdrifts but don't believe in Sasquatch, how can that be?
There has to be Sasquatch, they even have their own park here.
If they have their own park recognized by the Government of British Columbia, then they must exist.
