2007 marks the 40th anniversary of the famous Patterson-Gimlin film
made in northern California. This film features a female Bigfoot
striding next to a sandy creek. Scientists world-wide have studied
this film and remain divided upon its authenticity, however the
filmmakers Bob Gimlin and the late Roger Patterson have stood by
their photographic evidence. Expedition partner and outfitter Bob
Gimlin will join us for an audience discussion about his experience
on the Bluff Creek expedition and the famous encounter on the trail,
made immortal in the 24 feet of film images Patterson recorded.

Longtime Bigfoot field researcher Richard Noll is well-known for the
Skookum cast he made near Mt. St. Helens in 2000. The cast is a
reproduction of a massive impression or Bigfoot body print. Mr. Noll,
a featured expert on the History Channel's Monster Quest and other
programs, will speak about the Skookum cast and about his research on
Bigfoot.
