The TBRC is pleased to have Bob Gimlin as its special guest at this year's conference. In 1967, Mr. Gimlin and Roger Patterson filmed what many believe is a sasquatch as it walked along Bluff Creek in Northern California. Despite having been analyzed repeatedly over the last forty years, no one has been able to cogently demonstrate that the film was faked.
