I contacted the man's wife who I gave a ride to his home.  He will be back
in about two weeks.  His wife expressed an interest in Bigfoot because her
uncle has seen one of them.  She'll probably pass the information, after
reading
it, on to her husband.

Subject: Places Where Bigfoot Has Been Sighted.
Feb. 10, 2012.

  Here are some of the places where Bigfoot is sighted.  It starts out
slow and picks up speed as we go forward into the article.,

Hundreds of people have reported seeing a large, hairy, human-like

creature lurking in the remote regions of California, mostly Northern and
central
California, which is popular location for

summer houses. We can only imagine the numbers of encounters and
sightings which have gone unreported. The average person doesn't
know what he just saw and surely doesn't know he can report such
things. If the thought occurs, he doesn't know who or where to
http://www.bioethics.iastate.edu/classroom/summerhome.html
report the encounter. There are several people in California and
elsewhere who would be interested in listening to your report. They
are listed below.
The highest rate of sightings and recovered footprints are in the
Northwestern most part Northern California near the Oregon border
around the Humboldt Forest, Bluff Creek, Hoopa, Weitchpec, Orleans,
Somes Bar and Willow Creek, located between Crescent City to the
North and Eureka to the South; between Interstate 5 and Highway
101 on Highways 299 and 96. Why this general location has more
sightings reported is not known.
Perhaps because an increase in summer back-packers, bikers,
campers, fisherman, would-be trackers and the fact that much has
been written about this general area and Bigfoot. A growing number
of recent sightings have been listed in the Mt. Shasta region of
California. In addition, many California Highway Law Enforcement
and Forestry Service take these encounters and sightings as
matter-of-fact and are for the most part go unreported as public
sightings.

Other California cities with a number of reported sightings are
Mt. Lassen, Mt. Shasta, Weed, Round Mountain, Elk Creek,
Caribou, Happy Camp, Clear Creek, Trinity Alps, Weaverville,
Salyer, Crescent Mills, Modoc County, Lake Oroville, Hayfork,
Hyampom, Vacaville, the Lake Tahoe area, Yosemite, Mammoth
Lakes, Bear Valley; and in the coastal cities of Eureka, Yreka,
Fort Bragg, Orick, Crescent City, San Rafael and Olema as far
south as El Capitan Reservoir and Alpine in San Diego County
near the Mexican border where a family of 3 were sighted in
the 1970's by a San Diego psychologist.

Unlike the Eastern reports, the California Bigfoot is extremely
shy, illusive and while he seems curious, he is rarely
aggressive when confronted by humans. Reports vary from
state to state. Although kidnapping is sometimes reported, the
victim is never harmed. Occasional acts of Bigfoot heroism
occur, read sighting #61 listed in the Mt. Shasta area. Both
sexes and offspring have been observed, usually in summer
and fall. With a strong gelish frame, agility, and speed (one was
clocked at 35 MPH), Bigfoot is a good swimmer and are often
seen near and around bodies of fresh water; streams, lakes
and rivers.
They are notable for a putrid, rank odor. Bigfoot enjoys a
broad diet ranging from fish, rodents, and deer to fruits,
berries and various vegetation.
Bigfoot calls consist mostly of whistles, howls and shrieks
similar to those of a mountain lion but has been reported
imitating many different forest sounds. Most of all, the
sasquatch is huge in stature: specimens up to 14 feet tall
have been reported (tallest in Canada) with human-like
tracks ranging from 11 to 21 inches long but averaging
about 16 inches here in California. To follow are various
sightings and encounters in California which range from
the earliest cataloged reports in the '50's to today.
While there is a report included here from 1886, it
appears that reports were feverish in the '50's and '60's.
Only minimal attention is given to such reports in the '90's;
even less as the year 2002 nears, sightings and encounters
have considerably diminished. What that means in terms
of how many survived a general life span of 30-35 years
(Fahrenbach, '98 ISC  Journal) or had surviving offspring
is unknown. Gauging by the diminished reports, I would
say surviving sasquatches are indeed rare and greatly
outnumbered by elk and bears in California.

The majority of the older listings are taken from Betty
Allen's recordings, Bill Bishop's listings from Bob Titmus,
the Times-Standard, Bud Ryerson, Syl McCoy, Dewey
Haupe, Peter Guttilla, The Bord's Bigfoot Casebook and
the Filbey's 1987 Northern California touring map, the
remainder from books and other reports filed or sent
into this website.
I rarely add to this page anymore, (2009) preferring to
document witness reports by state.
