They do have much in common. Both are very elusive but are often seen. Yet, you cannot go out hunting for them with any guarantee of finding any. When you consider that 90% of our mountains and rock outcrops are covered with topsoil and heavy timber, the odds that what is exposed carries what we are looking for are diminished. Chances are someone has examined those outcrops, and areas that are in plain sight.
But the sheer size of our forests and mountains allow for yes, big foot as well as massive gold deposits, to remain undiscovered even amidst our technological age. By researching, and determining the most likely places to look, one can increase their chances. Afterall, yes there might be a 100 ounce per ton gold vein twenty feet below where you are camped, but you won't find it unless you dig or drill. You could drill random holes in random places, or instead focus on those areas that science and logic say gold probably would be. It is the same thing with big foot hunters. They look at topo maps, see where all the food sources are and determine the most likely regions to focus on. They don't just go out to random locations.
