Question: The 1967 Patterson-Gimlin film, the most famous footage claiming to show Bigfoot, was shot along which Northern California creek?

Answer: Bluff Creek. Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin filmed the roughly one-minute clip there on Oct. 20, 1967, in the Bluff Creek area of Northern California, within the Six Rivers National Forest and east of the community of Willow Creek. Grainy and less than a minute long, it remains the most famous and closely scrutinized piece of purported Bigfoot footage ever recorded.
