🚨 Sasquatch Update! 🚨

You have until Sunday the 14th to find me in my current hiding spot! Make a day of it and explore - Highlands Outpost while you're nearby.

Still stumped? I've got good news. If you haven't been able to figure out where I am, I'll be revealing my current hiding place before I move on, giving everyone one last chance to come find me.

And here's a bonus for the dedicated hunters: this Friday, I'll be dropping a subtle clue about my NEXT hiding place, so you can start planning your next adventure early!

Remember, when you find me, you'll be entered into our prize drawing. We'll spin the prize wheel next week to select a winner.

⏰ Don't wait too long! I'm moving to a new hiding place on Monday, so after that, you won't find me at my current location. By Tuesday afternoon, I'll be settled into my next hiding place and ready for the hunt to begin again!

So far, more than 50 people have physically found me, but only one person will earn the title of Ultimate Sasquatch Hunter by finding me at all 8 locations.

Remember, I move every two weeks. The hunt is on! 👣🌲🦶

🦶 Hey Explorers!

This week, Carl stopped by Highlands Outpost , one of the most exciting family adventure attractions in the Southern Smokies!

From the thrilling mountain coaster to tubing fun and incredible mountain scenery, it's easy to see why this is a favorite stop for visitors exploring the Plateau Playground.

But there's a catch...

👀 Carl isn't hiding here.

He's hiding nearby.

In this video, Carl shares one of his biggest clues yet. Watch closely because the photos at the end may reveal more than you think. A true explorer knows that clues aren't always spoken. Sometimes they're hidden in plain sight.

🦶🌲 BIG CLUE ALERT, EXPLORERS! 🌲🦶

Carl's latest obsession with flying squirrels is no accident...

He's spending his days somewhere high above the forest floor, where adventurers climb among the trees, hidden wonders wait off the beaten path, and a secret waterfall rewards those willing to explore a little farther.

This place is full of laughter, fresh mountain air, and challenges that might just take you to new heights.
