Mysterious Travel: The Sasquatch Museum

Just the other day, one of our friends dared us to explain cold fusion, so we stepped into the bathroom, Googled it on our mega-phone and then hit everyone with some fusion facts that blew their minds--and got us a free beer. Point being: There aren't many mysteries left in the world.

That's why were huge fans of stuff like The Sasquatch Museum, six hours north of San Francisco in the hairy heart of redwood country. Adding to the mystery of Bigfoot, the website for the museum boasts no street address, leading us to believe once you arrive in Willow Creek, you can't miss it.

What you can expect at the museum is a bevy of Sasquatch paraphernalia ranging from plaster casts of found foot prints to real video footage. Some say the beast is the age-old prank of a man in a gorilla suit, but die-hard believers such as Sasquatch champion and lifelong chronicler Bob Titmus say otherwise: An entire wing of the museum is dedicated to Titmus' archaeological findings.

Sasquatch has always been purported to be a shy creature, so we don't expect to find him hanging tough at the local Eureka brew pub, but catching up with his exploits at the museum would be almost as much fun.
