Kasaan is a native Haida village on the east side of Prince of Wales Island. Haida are the dominant tribe in southernmost southeast Alaska.
Juli, Keith and I drove over there today while Wayne and Arthur went fishing.
We walked around and took some pictures in Kasaan. Looking out over the harbor is a large, modern statue in the Haida style. The hats look almost similar to traditional Korean ones.
There are a lot of totem poles in the old part of Kasaan village, a bit west on a nice forest path from the new Kasaan village.
We had lunch at a little city park in Thorne Bay. That is the 3rd largest city on Prince of Wales Island. It is a strange town, as it appears the town planners were not brought along when the town was laid out.
