Cedar Man Holding Talking Stick - Richard Hunt 1988

Richard Hunt’s Cedar Man Holding Talking Stick is the world’s largest totem pole in diameter, measuring 1.8 meters (6′ 7″) across! It is carved in the Kwakwaka’wakw style and represents Cedar Man transforming into his human form. One cannot appreciate how large this is until you stand underneath the impressive totem. The tree from Port Renfrew was estimated at 775 years old when it was cut down and donated to the City of Duncan. Cedar Man Holding Talking Stick is located near the Duncan court house.
