| The Big Indian statue was built in 1954 for "Honest John's Trading Post". The nearly 26-foot-tall Indian was built by the owner, John Barker aka "Honest John". It was created from lumber, wire mesh, stucco, sand, cement, and fiberglass. Including the base and the 48-inch-tall feather, the statue is about 33 feet tall. In the late 1950s, the business and statue were moved to Stone Drive, the new main highway. In addition to the gift shop, Honest John's now featured a restaurant and gas station. Since 1971, the building has housed Pratt's Bar-B-Que. In 2018, the statue's head bent forward into his chest. The head was replicated by Mark Cline. Big John was given a full headdress instead of the feathers and Mohawk. The original head was restored and is displayed inside the restaurant.
