Erected in 1974, the Indian stood in front of the Big Indian Gift Shop, which became Big Indian Plaza, and then, in 2009, "Native and Himalayan Views." But the owners kept the big Indian.

March 2023 -- the current owner is being asked to remove the statue. He is proposing to alter it instead. Actions are pending...

A trading post store (named Native and Himalayan Views) that has odd and worthy attractions outside, including a teepee, a giant wooden Indian, and a large bear statue. The building is very fun and brightly colored, but unfortunately the store is closed.

The shop is now named Native Views, but the big Indian is still there along with some metal teepees and a cool bear. No live animals, though.

Located on (Rt 2) the scenic Mohawk Trail. He was never a Muffler Man, but this Indian is about 20' tall. If you go you will be pleased to see a bear on the other side of the "Big Indian Gift Shop," which has terrific signage and plenty of other really "attractive" creations about the place.
