The Anchorome Campaign Guide does include analogues for the North American legend of the Sasquatch. This includes both the Alaghi – a race of beings who inhabit the Adusgi Forest in the East of the continent – and their simpler cousins, the Umplebies. The latter are so hairy that they regularly build up a static charge which comes into play in combat. Both the Alaghi and the Umbleby are found in old Monster Manuals. The ACG also adds Alaghi Runts as playable races – some of whom wear clothes to more comfortably interact with non-hairy folk.
This was a an opportunity to draw Alpha Flight’s Sasquatch – also known as Walter Langkowski or Tanaraq, one of the Great Beasts. The Great Beasts, a Marvel invention, were spirit beings who opposed the Inuit gods of Marvel, the Inua. They were banished from the realm and it was non-Indigenous scientist Walter Langkowski who accidentally freed Tanaraq, whose body he inhabited in order to become Canadian superhero strongman Sasquatch.
In Anchorome, Tanaraq is a Bear-Totem Barbarian of the Adusgi Forest, drawing on the power of the Beast Spirits to protect the Northern forests. He was freed from captivity by Faerunian wizard Władysław from within Fort Flame and the two have made a tentative alliance for good.

Bear totem barbarians are, I think, a classic choice when going for enormous strength.
The Outlander background for Athletics and Survival would be a solid choice. Or if you wanted to lean in to the Walter Langkowski scientist angle, Sage background for Arcana and History.
Further Thoughts
The Sasquatch story is actually a Western/Pacific one. Some of the early stories were told by the Salish to a Western folklorist, and later to an Indian Agent who published them – albeit altering the words used to a Halkomelem variant. The Pacific Coast is a fascinating area linguistically because the dozens of First Nations groups who live side by side nonetheless often have completely different languages. I believe it is the most linguisticaly dense area of Indigenous North America.
The Historical Natives podcast, by Indigenous persons, recently did an episode on the Sasquatch.
The Marvelous Anchorome Series imagines Marvel Comics Indigenous characters as D&D PCs and NPCs from the Forgotten Realms “True World” setting, including Anchorome, Maztica, and Lopango. See also my new Distinguished Anchorome series and Random Anchorome series.
