You never know what you’ll discover when exploring the back roads in North Carolina. Over in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, way up on one of the mountains that ring the Cataloochee Valley, there’s a Sasquatch that’s nothing short of awesome.

If you love Bigfoot, and even if you don’t… the more than 10-foot Bigfoot hiding along a tiny, barely two-lane road is an incredible find.

Boom. There’s an enormous Bigfoot statue right on the side of the road!

And at night… Well, let’s just say you’ll have to look harder to find him.
