It stymied even a veteran backpacker. Given the recent disdain for ducks, we decided to build a trap in the dinkeys. Caught at least one.
We let him out eventually as he was our ride.
PS: still waiting for him to kick off the TR for that trip.

Great picture of him Russ, makes him look much better than in person.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Re: How to build a duck trap.
In fact, I do have a video of an unlikely pair helping to improve the trap. If you see the dust kicked up by the sasquatch helping to build the trap, that's not dust. That's his normal aura after 4 days in the backcountry:
