Forks Sasquatch Days was the brainchild of Ken Hamilton who operates ‘Sasquatch the Legend’ in Forks. Sasquatch the Legend was founded in 2021 by Ken and his wife Laurie. Ken and Laurie were inspired to open a Bigfoot-themed business after having a strange encounter while on vacation in Alabama.

Over a short time, Sasquatch The Legend has rapidly grown to become a leading Sasquatch specialty retailer with both a strong online presence and a brick-and-mortar store located in Forks, Washington, on the beautiful Olympic Peninsula. It is definitely worth a visit and ‘Sasquatch Days’ provides a perfect opportunity to get your Squatch on (while you’re there be sure and pick up a bag or 2 of Sasquatch Coffee).
