The hills and mountains of Southwest Virginia are the perfect playground for the Woodbooger.
If walking the gravel footpath to the Flag Rock Overlook in Flag Rock Recreation Area, you can't miss the giant statue of a Bigfoot-like creature located just beyond the parking area. Known locally as the "Woodbooger," the city erected the statue and Norton City Council designated the recreation area a "Woodbooger Sanctuary" following a visit by Animal Planet's Finding Bigfoot TV show. In 2011, the show spent a week in Southwest Virginia filming an episode that features scenes from High Knob.
Come join us as we share our stories of encounters with the Woodbooger, and make plans to have your own encounter with the elusive creature!
The Woodbooger GeoTour is sponsored by the City of Norton and local businesses.
Please log your will attend to ensure that you do not miss out on announcements and updates.
