Geographical story
- YG265 • "On the hill back of this place the fir trees stand about like people engaged in the deer-skin dance. A myth recounts that 'somebody' who was trying to start the deer-skin ceremony without being able to find the 'right' place tried it out here; hence the appearance above mentioned. A huge leaning tree here is known as Wohpekumew's cane."
