Default Totem Pole in Ontario
Here are some pics of a totem pole I saw in my trip across Ontario from Niagara Falls to Michigan. This was about 1 1/2 years ago. I looked for a plaque that would give some information on the carver, but there wasn't one, or I missed it. I think it's a great totem pole! I particularly like the way the carver extended the carving of the figures entirely around the pole. I don't know much about totem poles, but this seems really non-traditional to me, while, at the same time, captures the totem spirit.

If I'm remembering right, it was in a town not too far from Stratford. I'm hoping someone on the forum might have some information on the history of this pole. I took it as an inspiration picture, and it would be nice to have some more info. Thanks, and enjoy the pictures!
