The Mount St. Helens Bigfoot statue is 28-feet tall, made of concrete and ash, with intricately detailed fur and a folklorish grin. It's as if, instead of fleeing from whirring cameras, he decided to stop and strike a cute pose. You can do likewise, with the whole family, around his legs.

After the eruption, some claimed that the "real" Bigfoot had been killed once and for all.

The owners of the Survivors Gift Shop decided to honor his memory when they built their original Bigfoot statue in the mid-1980s. It was slightly smaller than the current one, and made of combustible materials, as proved by its incineration by vandals in the mid-1990s.


But if the real Bigfoot isn't a survivor, the Bigfoot statue is.
