A small grocery store in Bailey, Colorado, transformed into the Sasquatch Outpost, a museum dedicated to Bigfoot, after business was slow. The store now sells Bigfoot paraphernalia and features exhibits curated by the owner, including plaster casts of Bigfoot tracks and preserved feces believed to be from the creature.

The museum ends with a sign asking visitors if they believe in Sasquatch, with the owner stating that the correct answer is yes.
