Totem Pole

We made a stop at Government House. It is a great place to take pictures. This totem pole came from the coast of British Columbia.
It was built in honour of the 1983 World University Games held here in Edmonton. It stands 32 feet tall

[Dione Giorgio]

It does look like a great piece of ancient artwork. Beautiful shot. Sad that the many Red Indian tribes with their culture have been almost annihilated by the 'white' settlers.

It has some beautiful carving on it. It's quite impressive when you can see the height from this view point, but I imagine the details are really nice too.
