Bob Gimlin recounts his 1967 sighting of a Bigfoot near Bluff Creek, California. He and Roger Patterson were on a pack horse ride when they came across a Bigfoot by a creek. Gimlin describes how his horse reacted and how Roger managed to take footage of the encounter. They had been called to the area after three different-sized footprints were found near a piece of equipment. Gimlin also discusses his feelings about the advancement of Bigfoot research and the increased acceptance of its existence in recent years. He shares that for 35 years after the sighting, he was considered an outcast in his community and that it wasn't until 2003 that he started sharing his story at conferences again.
