So what's the deal with Big Foot? Is he real? Is he simply a fabrication? Or is "he" maybe a "she?" Judging from my husband's comments about the winter growth on my legs, I am Big Foot!

But seriously, haven't you ever been a bit curious about the Big Foot thing? The videos of the hairy beast crashing through the Oregonian forest... sightings by reputable sources... the many people that believe.

Here are four Big Foot adventure tours that will bust the myth or not. Discover Big Foot for yourself on these travel adventures. Don't forget your camera.

1.) Big Foot Tour Operator, Cusco, Peru promises mystical and custom-made tours to Machu Picchu. Although there is no mention of Big Foot on their public website, you can enter the "Private Area" -- if you have the proper user name and password. (Sound effect: door creaking) Perhaps behind this hidden area is the Sasquatch secrets as this company is the "Gateway to the Andean Universe." www.bigfootcusco.com

2.) Big Foot is "something of the gorilla type, is said to stand four feet seven inches in height and weigh hundreds of pounds. He has long black, strong hair and resembles a human being with one exception, his entire body, excepting his hands (or paws) and feet are covered with glossy hair about one inch long," according to the folks at BigFoot Safari located on Vancouver Island in British Columbia.

They further report that in 1910, the murders of two miners, found with their heads cut off, were attributed to the ominous creature. The 4x4 tour company purports to be a non-profit society dedicated to assisting with ongoing research of noted wildlife biologist, John Bindernagel PhD, author of "The Great North American Ape, Sasquatch".www.bigfootsafari.com

3.) Journey into the pristine wilderness of Honey Island Swamp outside of New Orleans, Louisiana with Honey Swamp Tours. They have been chasing Big Foot, locally known as "Wookie," for years. According to Dr. Wagner, a wetlands ecologist, "It can get kind of spooky at night. Sometimes you don't know what you are hearing. I was fishing near a canebrake one night and I heard some footsteps. Whatever it was, it sounded big. I turned to see the cane spreading apart, so I got out of there. Maybe it was Wookie, but I sure didn't hang around to find out!" www.honeyislandswamp.com

4.) When in northern Arizona, make sure to check out Bigfoot Bar-B-Q, voted "Best BBQ of Flagstaff" seven years in a row. You could order the Bigfoot Steak & Cheese, but my fave is the Nawl Ens-style
Junkyard Dawg. $7.99 buys 1/4 pound Spicy LaHot link topped with pulled pork and coleslaw. It's called the Junkyard Dawg cause this big boy will bite ya back. If you didn't see him before, you'll see the big Yeti man in your dreams after all this smokin' BBQ. Flagstaff, AZ.  www.bigfootbbq.com
