    I didn't know this place existed until I drove through it on my Motorcycle. I was on a trip across Canada and try to wander off the beaten path through small towns. WOW! it was amazing. Artists have created wood chainsaw carving everything from undersea life, motorcycle, animals, people, and fantasy. I spent 3 hours wandering and marveling at the skill of the carvers. If your anywhere near the area it's worth the look. Some are hard to believe they are created with a chainsaw. See more..
