A colossal red cedar burl displayed roadside in Port McNeill — a study in rich wood grain, sculptural form and coastal forest context. Shoot wide to convey scale against the shore and trees, or close for dramatic texture and swirling patterns. Visit early morning or late afternoon for warm side light; coastal fog can add mood. Easy roadside access with parking nearby and no formal entry fee; respect local First Nations' cultural ties to cedar and avoid climbing on the exhibit.
