Bobbie Short was a registered nurse by occupation. While backpacking with friends deep in the Humboldt Forest-Trinity Alps region of northern California in the early morning hours of September 8, 1985, she saw a seven-foot-tall Bigfoot pass directly in front of her.

I loved Bobbie Short’s website called Bigfoot Encounters, and back in 2008/09 read every encounter she published. Sadly she passed on to soon in life. This is my favorite from her website ( in fact one of my all time favorites ) that has always stayed with me. It is a remarkable experience by the trucker and just about as close a sighting as one could ever have. It may have been the first time I realized that a friendship between Sasquatch and us can be achieved, although I imagine not often enough.

Thanks for sharing, Charles. Enjoyed reading that encounter, especially the truck driver’s interactions w/ the female.

The image is clearly a tree stump. Look at it with that preconceived notion and it’ll be obvious.

Tried that and I just can’t see a stump.

Absolutely adored this woman & all she shared & made available to us on her website. I will forever miss her & who she was from the heart, as all will who knew a part of her. Forever at Peace Bobbie Short ?

Charles that is also my favorite encounter on her website! Bobbie was a great lady and shared her knowledge freely. I emailed her many times asking newbie questions and she always answered and never made me feel dumb for asking.

I’ve always loved this interview with Bobby Short. I for one believe her. Very articulate and speaks quite calmly.
