 Juneau
carver Jim Markes uses an adze to carve a rough form
of a seven-foot-long totem Tuesday at Sealaska
Plaza. Juneau master carvers Markes and Ray Peck are
carving the totem pole for Nypro, a plastics company
and business partner of Sealaska Corp. Sealaska
Heritage Institute has a live camera on its Web site
so that viewers can follow the carvers' progress.
The Web site address is
http://www.sealaskaheritage.org. The pole is to
be completed by Nov. 1.
