Our research has uncovered two poles that are now feared completely "lost". The first is the Ashuk T'Salil pole. It use to stand, according to an old site plan, on the right hand side of the longhouse as you faced the building. It was the farthest pole on the right next to the original site of the Sunyakwa pole. The following is a description of the Ashuck T'Salil pole:

"The top figure represents the clan of the Silver Marmot. The cross bar is called the people ladder showing the 10 chapters working together. Below the ladder is the Grizzly Bear showing indomitable outdoor spirit of the Chapter. The man with the copper signifies the wealth and resources of the chapter. The total totem shows the relationship to the lodge and the uniqueness in the lodge of the Chapter."

In the photo above note the downed pole in the lower left side. This pole is now lost. If you have any pictures or information about the Ashuk Tsalil pole please share it with us so we can share it with the lodge.

The second "lost" pole is the Talapus Tillicum pole. It had only one figure that of the wolf. Talapus Tillicum means the wolf people. It stood between the Hyas Eena and the Kiskis' pole as you faced the longhouse on the right side.
