TWO men who went missing after going on a search for Bigfoot have been found dead.
The men, both from Portland, Oregon, were reported missing by a family member on Christmas Day.
They had set out on Christmas eve to search for the legendary creature in eastern Skamania County, but failed to return home.
A massive search was launched and a vehicle linked with the men was found off a road near Willard, Wash.
The bodies of the men were eventually found after three days in a heavily wooded area, according to the Skamania County Sheriff’s Office.
Their cause of death appeared to be “exposure, based on weather conditions and ill-preparedness,” police said.
The area had been battered by snow, rain and low temperatures in the days leading up to the men going missing.
Search efforts were impeded by challenging terrain and severe weather conditions, including freezing temperatures, snow, and high water levels, according to law enforcement officials.
