Locations of Salish Sea foot discoveries through January 3, 2019. Since August 20, 2007, at least 20 detached human feet have been found on the coasts of the Salish Sea in British Columbia, Canada, and Washington, US. The first discovery, on August 20, 2007, was on Jedediah Island in British Columbia.
In the summer of 2007, a family visiting Jedediah Island found the remains of a human foot on the beach. It was the first in a series of feet to be discovered in the following years throughout the Salish Sea. The foot that washed up on Jedediah Island was traced back to a man that has been missing since 2004 – foul play is not suspected. [5]
