Page "Patterson-Gimlin film" Paragraph 10

As their stories went, in the early afternoon of October 20, Patterson and Gimlin were at Bluff Creek.

Both were on horseback when they " came to an overturned tree with a large root system at a turn in the creek, almost as high as a room.

" When they rounded it they spotted the figure behind it nearly simultaneously, while it was " crouching beside the creek to their left.

" Gimlin later described himself as in a mild state of shock after first seeing the figure.
