I don't think this is a Totem Pole associated with one that was carved & decorated by Holm Folk, under the direction of visiting Canadian Indian descendants - and erected in 2007 - see Image I think this one is a huge piece of local driftwood judging by the marine worm holes. This picture shows the Pole in context (see also Image) and I have added a second supplematary of the head, almost as good as Ian Smith's, to show how little weathering has occurred in 6 years
