But didn't see anything. :(
However, the Monster Mart is still there. I wonder if Highway 71 is the highway people say they have seen the creature run across? Some parts of it look remote with lots of trees.
Oh yeah. But more reports around 160 which is near Doddridge. And lots of county roads closer to the Sulphur River as opposed to the actual Boggy Creek.
shareHow lucky you are. I'd love to go just to say I've been there. If I saw the monster it would just be an added bonus.

Per Wiki:
Since the initial clusters of sightings during the 1970s, there have been sporadic reports of the creature. In 1991 the creature was reportedly seen jumping from a bridge. There were forty reported sightings in 1997 and, in 1998, the creature was reportedly sighted in a dry creek bed 5 miles (8 km) south of Fouke.share
More recent sightings from 2000–2010 were brought to light by Lyle Blackburn's 2012 book, The Beast of Boggy Creek: The True Story of the Fouke Monster. In one case, a married couple saw a large, hairy bipedal creature run across a county road near Fouke in 2010.
Love reading that the nostalgia is still there.
