Creatures people keep reporting and nobody has caught.

  • Cryptids46.1655° N, 122.0910° W

    Cougar, WA

    The trail carries the name of a 1924 story in which miners claimed that ape-like creatures attacked their cabin near Mount St. Helens. Today it is a legitimate trailhead, but seasonal snow and Forest Road closures can prevent vehicle access.

    North Bonneville, WA

    A family of carved Sasquatches occupies the city's Discovery Trail network, with more Bigfoot figures scattered around town. The municipal trail plan explicitly incorporates the carvings into the public route.

    Bremerton, WA

    A mural by Loc Hong at 532 5th Street, showing a Yeti taking a shower aboard a ferry against a backdrop of mountains — Pacific Northwest ferry culture crossed with cryptid humour. Visible from the street.

    Index, WA

    A large Sasquatch figure stands beside the highway outside the Espresso Chalet, a long-running Bigfoot-themed photo stop on Stevens Pass. It converts Cascades cryptid lore into an easy, legal roadside visit.

  • Cryptids46.1371° N, 122.9420° W

    Longview, WA

    A twelve-foot Bigfoot carved from an evergreen stump by chainsaw artist Patrick Bryson in 2023, holding the house number. It stands in the front garden of a private home — view it from the road and do not enter the property.

    Private land, view only
  • Cryptids47.2755° N, 120.4284° W

    Wenatchee, WA

    An eleven-foot metal Yeti high on Mission Ridge near the Liberator Express chairlift, welded from steel, recycled tire chains and scrap. The chain "fur" was designed to catch snow and frost. Reaching it means getting up the mountain, so this is a ski-area visit rather than a roadside stop.

    Seasonal or ticketed
  • Cryptids47.6643° N, 122.3197° W

    Seattle, WA

    Richard Beyer's 1982 sculpture at University Playground: a full-size aluminium Sasquatch leaning into a brightly painted house frame and apparently pushing it over. Free and always there.

  • Cryptids48.9956° N, 122.7516° W

    Blaine, WA

    A 3,500-pound concrete Sasquatch, six foot eight, standing downtown near the Welcome Center. Installed as a town landmark and free to visit at any hour.

    Roadside, no entry
  • Cryptids48.4776° N, 122.3286° W

    Burlington, WA

    A towering Sasquatch figure stands beside the highway as a deliberately oversized Pacific Northwest photo stop. It turns the region's Bigfoot mythology into a concrete routable landmark.
