Here is the higher resolution footprint and two partial signature loops that match the lower resolution CPGH BC posted on this thread. It looks good enough for an ID to an adult foot, such as Barry's in my non-professional assessment. LDS claims that only this much was shown to him as part of a negotiation. LDS doesn't seem to say, yet, what happened with the negotiation.

The inclusion of the two loops in the frame of the image matching the LDS BC in his CA court affidavit suggests that a higher resolution scan of the entire CPGH BC exists (in someone else’s possession, if you believe LDS) and this is NOT just an isolated image of a footprint which was the source for the lower resolution image and somehow pasted into and the source of the LDS image as part of a forgery.

No authentication of any of either CPGH BC image (full or partial) is yet possible. But

best location for ridges is big toe and ball of foot.

....Previous Research

The premise that nature does not repeat itself is the basis for forensic identification. We accept that each person’s features have their own unique configuration. Research has been done in relation to friction ridges, ear prints, and footprints [1- 4]. In anticipation of the court case, a review of the literature turned up no previous cases in which foot creases had been used for identification. In the area of research, few studies have been done, and most are in relation to infants and do not consider persistence.

In 1959, Blake [5] researched the individualizing power of foot creases, utilizing the footprints of 1,388 infants. He concluded that “the creases are individual to each foot and no two feet are alike and they remain constant after birth” [5]. No indication was given as to how long these infants were followed to establish the persistence of the creases.

In work done in 1979, Taylor [6] stated that creases should only be used as an alternative to friction ridge identification, because he claimed to have found similar crease structure in two different infants. However, the creases on the footprints shown in his article do not seem similar in shape.

Bali’s Anthropology of Crease Morphogenesis: A Scientific Analysis [7] deals specifically with crease morphology and has a chapter on foot creases; however, the author focuses on the classification of the creases on the basis of shape and location on the foot, as opposed to the permanence and individualizing power of them.

Lohnes [8] refers to Blake’s research in a 1986 article in which he states, “Flexure creases are unique and remain constant during the first few weeks of life. They do not change in direction or distance from each other. As a child continues to grow, there is a gradual change in size, shape and quantity of flexure creases.”.......
