For Three Lakes I used Norwegian names with fair skintones and lighter hair colors. My Twikkii Islanders have mainly Hawaiian names with darker skintones and hair colors. I wish there were teen versions of the lumberjack outfits and grass skirts because they don't really fit in with the rest of the Vacationers.
Norwegians are timid and weary of strangers. They certainly don't pound their chest, in fact they're more likely to hide behind their cabin and pretend not to be home.
Axes have not been thrown in Norway since the Vikings caught Christianity. And if anyone eats pancakes, it will be the kind made from potatoes. Actually, any meal you'd encounter in Norway the last 500 years will be at least 50% potatoes.
Don't even get me started on Bigfoot. We have gnomes (nisser); they're three feet tall and watch over your livestock if you're good to them, and if you're not kind to your nisse... Let's just say you better put out a bowl of porridge and mug of ale on Christmas if you value your cow. Oh, and if you don't watch your newborns, the nisse will (for some unknown reason of his own) swap it for a stupid and deformed one.
Anyway; Norway: NO.
American-Norwegian descendants: Possibly.
J. M. Pescado:
Lumberjack Land is clearly Canadian or northern US. There are no legendary Bigfoots anywhere else, unless you count the Himalayan yeti, but there is not much in the way of lumberjacking and flannel there. The absence of sherpas clearly demonstrates this is not what EAxis is referring to.
Sagana:
Could be California which has some nice Bigfoot stories and logging for all those redwoods and such. Although actually there are similar hominid cryptid sightings in many places (Mongolia, Missouri, Scotland). Wiki has a nice long list.
I dunno, I still think the Paul Bunyan thing fits best. I can just see 'em skating around a frying pan on rashers of bacon preparing pancakes for his breakfast right before the slapdance extravaganza. I wish they'd put in Babe - I'd rather have a giant blue ox than a big foot myself.

is always a load of boring bollocks to which I never listen. But that's just me. Carry on.

Oh yes, there are plenty of hillbilly-type small towns that dot the Sierras in California. A Three-Lakes hood set around Yosemite or Sequoia Parks would work just fine.
