I remember all the fuss about that pole.. it has been re-carved and is mounted on totem park in Klawock. The pole was in dire shape.. now the original pole sits next to the native carving shed in a pile of other poles that were brought over from the village site and then one of the master carver groups recharged them for prosperity... I will get a pic of the pole pile and post it here when I go to town on Friday..
Some before and after pictures of the original poles and the re-carved ones...
And a picture of the route I took paddling that day.
The green circle is where I actually am now in the village of Naukati Bay
The blue circle is where the village site is
The red circle is where I found the shaman site....
All the the mine symbols on the map are actually rock pits where rock was mined for making the endless dirt trails for logging. Most of them are gone. As are a majority of the dirt trails. Easiest way to explore is via canoe much of the time as the forest is dark and dense.
