Wood carving has been a part of northwestern culture for many centuries. The natives have been carving totem poles for a really long time and, from what I can tell, they passed the culture of carving down to the settlers when they really started to populate this area in the mid-19th century.
The people out on the Olympic peninsula are particularly crazy about wood carvings—enough that there are a whole handful of them at a gas station nearby the ferry landing in Kingston, WA.
They taste just like snozberries.
Gimmeh ice-cream!
One peculiar local novelty is the fish with legs.
