Patterson–Gimlin film
Alleged film of Bigfoot
"Roger Patterson" redirects here. For the bassist, see Roger Patterson (bassist).
The Patterson–Gimlin film (also known as the Patterson film or the PGF) is an American short motion picture of an unidentified subject that the filmmakers have said was a Bigfoot. The footage was shot in 1967 in Northern California, and has since been subjected to many attempts to authenticate or debunk it.
The footage was filmed alongside Bluff Creek, a tributary of the Klamath River, about 25 logging-road miles (40 km) northwest of Orleans, California, in Del Norte County on the Six Rivers National Forest. The film site is roughly 38 miles (60 km) south of Oregon and 18 miles (30 km) east of the Pacific Ocean.[2] For decades, the exact location of the site was lost, primarily because of re-growth of foliage in the streambed after the flood of 1964. It was rediscovered in 2011.[3][4][5] It is just south of a north-running segment of the creek informally known as "the bowling alley".

Bob Gimlin
Biography:
Bob Gimlin was born October 18, 1931, in Missouri. Eventually he moved to Yakima, Washington, where he lives to this day. Gimlin was and still is a rancher who breaks in young horses--at the age of 85! He has lived an interesting life in and around the Yakima area. Gimlin was there when Roger Patterson filmed the now famous Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot film. Gimlin met Patterson between 1955 and 1959, and Patterson thrilled Gimlin with many stories and accounts of sightings. The two would go out on pre-expeditions in search of the creatures.
Patterson and Gimlin were in the Mount Saint Helens area in September 1967, when they received a message that there were Bigfoot tracks in the Six Rivers National Forest area in northwestern California. Patterson and Gimlin went down there, stayed for 3 weeks and filmed a Bigfoot. They also cast tracks of the creature. A few years ago, he began to be invited to different conferences. He spoke briefly at the 2003 Willow Creek Bigfoot Symposium and was an honored guest there. He also spoke at the 2004 Crypto-Conference
