Bigfoot Expeditions: The Search for Sasquatch
Find out everything you ever wanted to know about the ongoing search for Sasquatch from some recognized leaders in the field. The program features presentations by Robert Gimlin, Richard Noll and Owen Caddy. Gimlin was with Roger Patterson when they shot the now-famous Patterson-Gimlin film-24 feet of color film showing a female Bigfoot walking along a sandy creek, filmed forty years ago in Bluff Creek in Northern California. It is now among the most famous evidence of the creature's existence. Expedition partner and outfitter Gimlin will talk about his experience and the famous encounter on that trail. Noll, a longtime Bigfoot researcher, will talk about his work and the well-known Skookum cast. The cast was made from a partial body print found near Mt. St. Helens in 2000, believed to have been made by a living Sasquatch. A copy of the cast will be on display during Noll's presentation. Caddy will present "Digital Enhancement of the Patterson-Gimlin Film Subject." He will share the results of the film's digital enhancement, revealing for the first time many details of the film subject's face. All three speakers were featured in a recent Bigfoot episode of Monster Quest on the History Channel. Admission is FREE, with a suggested $2 donation.
