Small argillite pole with carved animal figures and human faces. At the base is Bear Mother with twin cubs. The bear has an open mouth and tongue out, clutching two inverted cub faces in its outstretched paws. Above is a killer whale, facing downward, with its tailfins curling back over the top of pole. The back of the pole is smooth and concave. The base is a square of thin argillite.

Figure carved from argillite, with the hands and head broken off. A frog sits at the front of the base, its head turned outward; it is thickly covered by shallowly incised, oblong spots. Behind the frog is a low, square platform, upon which sits upright an animal with an incised spotted back and unmarked front and limbs. The legs are bent and drawn up, toes pointing inward, arms resting against chest.
