This has me thinking. what part of the US are they supposed to be in? by the landscape and weather (Or lack there of) I would hazard to guess this takes place in California but then again I could be entirely wrong
We (KB and I) never really put New Athens anywhere specifically. In general it’s somewhere in the New England states northeastern corner of the U.S. near any geographic feature that’s needed in the plot.
Although most Bigfoot sightings are in the Pacific Northwest (northern California up to Alaska) there are sightings all over the country. Texas, Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania also have a lot of sightings. Where I live in Oregon, you can often coax the mountainmen out of a tale or two of a “weird creature” or “skunk ape.” Some go as far as saying the S-word… Sasquatch. Of course they don’t report it. Who’d believe them? They say they know the smell and know to stay away. Taryn should take that advice.
Where I live (New Zealand), we tend to have people claiming to see Taniwha (kinda like sea dragons, but they also inhabit rivers and lakes), but generally only when it suits them – like to stop a bridge or road being built (because Taniwha are a cultural belief thing, no one’s ready to question them because they’re worried they’ll seem racist or bigoted if they do).
