Chainsaw Carvings in Paradise

The fascinating art of chainsaw carving is fun to watch, if you have some earplugs! Here we see E.K. Lafitte at work creating a popular bear in the great outdoors of Paradise. Edwin chops them out of white pine or white cedar and takes orders and sends them to his customers and everything is 100% chainsaw carved. His repertoire includes bears, eagles, owls, bulldogs, totem poles, Indians, bullfrogs and actually just about anything you want. They are located on Highway M 123 West about 10 miles south of Whitefish Point.
