What is the Sasquatch Information Society (bigfootinfo.org)?
Updated
bigfootinfo.org is the website of the Sasquatch Information Society, a community platform for collecting and browsing Bigfoot/Sasquatch sightings, evidence, and field research. It is an information hub rather than an official scientific or government body: content comes from community-submitted reports and published research material. Use it if you want to explore mapped sightings, read field notes, or submit your own report; look elsewhere if you need verified academic or institutional findings.
What the site offers
The homepage organizes its content into a few main areas:
- Interactive Sightings Map — a map of published sighting locations. The page states it currently shows 85 mapped sightings, with a link to open the full map.
- Newest Sightings — a running list of recent reports, each with a location, a classification (e.g., Class A, Class B), a date, and a short description.
- Evidence Library — photos, audio, video, and other field evidence.
- Expeditions — active and completed field work. At the time of the page content, no expeditions had been published yet.
- Encyclopedia — reference and research entries.
- Field Notes & News — articles and commentary, such as tracking basics, camera/photo discussions, and historical items like the 1969 Skamania County Ordinance.
How sightings are presented
Each report follows a consistent format, which makes the list scannable:
| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| Location | Atlanta, Georgia |
| Class | Class A |
| Date | 2026-08-29 |
| Description | A short first-person account |
The "Class A" / "Class B" labels appear to distinguish report types or evidence strength, though the homepage excerpt does not define the criteria. Treat them as the site's own categories rather than a standardized scientific scale.
Who runs it and what that means for you
The site describes itself as "your Bigfoot platform" built around exploring, documenting, and researching. That framing points to a community aggregation model:
- Reports are submitted by users, so quality and accuracy vary.
- The site publishes and organizes material rather than independently verifying every claim.
- It is not an official agency, so nothing here should be treated as authoritative confirmation of the phenomenon.
Practical takeaways
- If you want a browsable, map-based overview of reported sightings, the Interactive Sightings Map and Newest Sightings sections are the fastest entry points.
- If you want to contribute, the site has a "Submit a Report" path.
- If you want deeper reading, the Encyclopedia and Field Notes & News sections hold the reference and article content.
- Check the Expeditions section for current field work, but note it may be empty depending on publication status.
