Standing Bear Memorial

Date
1967
Photographer: MacDonald, George F.
Description

This memorial pole depicts a grizzly bear with a plain column above its head. Squat figures of owls are carved in the ears of the bear. The pole appears in the photograph to be remarkably well preserved in relation to the others on the site and was probably erected just prior to the abandonment of the site.
