If we combine the stories of P&G and Titmus, she presumably sat and watched them, and then left that spot and continued away from the site before P&G began tracking her for 3-3.5 miles.

But Gimlin says they tracked her till she left the creek bed, leaving a wet print on a rock.. This implys she didn't leave the creek bed till right before they lost her trail .. ( after ~ 3 miles )

Then we tracked on up the creek
bed quite a ways. We saw one wet half of a footprint on a rock as
it went up into the mountains and that was as far as we went with it.

It Doesn't gel with Patty sitting and watching them from some place abobe the creek ..
 
Roger followed Patty "up into the real thick bush" with the camera according to Gimlin in the 1968 Argosy story. Gimlin saw Patty still ahead as Roger went up into the bush. Patty was "way out ahead and really taking off for the hills" according to Gimlin.

No way Patty stopped, sat down, and watched the two right after the filming, imo.

Patterson further states that Patty took off running.

There is no room in the Argosy account for Patty sitting and watching.

I must admit to a mixture of weariness and disgust when it comes to the PGF in general but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this reference made by BFF member and friend of Tube Wolftrax in this BFF thread:
Though Heironimus' testimony is dodgy, the more you put the filmers testimony to scrutiny they also seem just as dodgy. Was it yards or miles they tracked Patty? Got the film pocessed in a day on the weekends? Where at? 1 week or a few in the area? Horse fell on Patterson or he jumped? So 2 years later Gimlin finally admits it was Heironimus' horse at the filmsite? If statements can be considered proof, what about DeAtley stating it was a hoax?

Apologies for being out of the loop on this.
 
You think you are disgusted now. Dig this...

Heironumus' horse was at the film site, but it gets better. Bob Heironimus himself is in Patterson's Bigfoot Documentary riding that horse. We have still frames that show Patterson, Gimlin & Heironimus in the same shot and all on horseback. Even more better....Gimlin is wearing a long-haired wig. Gimlin was hoaxing for Roger and posing as Roger's "Indian tracking guide". That hoax was carried into Patterson's public showings of the PGF. Gimlin would be there in the wig and Indian clothes posing as the tracker. Apparently Patterson never told the crowd that the Indian was Bob Gimlin.

Read Greg Long. :D

What does the first news story say?:

A Yakima Washington man and his Indian tracking aide come out of the wilds of northern Humboldt county yesterday to breathlessly report that they had seen and taken motion pictures of "a giant hominoid creature."

Bob was still playing the part for the newspapers....

This photo caption in Greg Long's book reads, "The six amateur actors in Roger Patterson's Bigfoot movie."

Left to right: Roger Patterson, John Ballard, Jerry Merritt, Howard Heironimus, "Indian" Bob Gimlin, Bob Heironimus.

Just a quick reminder that Bob Heironimus has confessed to being the guy in the Patty suit. BH's family, friends and other residents of Yakima have said that he always had a strange way of walking. He still does. I've seen the clip of Heironimus walking, and it looks just like Patty. Same arm-swinging, stride and cadence.
 
The mystery of Bossburg and the fence solved by Dahinden. Bigfoot crossed the fence just like a person would, according to Dahinden. Bigfoot pushed the top wire down and stepped over sideways.
