[David Kamada, 05/29/2010]Louie the Lumberjack:- Address:
- 218 S. Milton Rd, Flagstaff, AZ
- Directions:
- North edge of downtown, on the south side of Route 66, at its intersection with W. Tucson Ave.
Louie is a 10-foot-tall, 990-pound lumberjack statue, made of cedar, that has stood outside one of Flagstaff's oldest restaurants for decades. The wood is cracking and needs a new paint job. So Wally Baird has taken him home and is restoring him, including giving him a new axe. He is due back at the restaurant, Granny's Closet, in August 2009.

[Doug, 01/04/2021]Thanks-- we've adjusted the pole pin to its proper spot at the corner of the Hardware store parking lot landscaping.
Hardware Store Totem Pole:- Address:
- 1763 East Butler Ave, Flagstaff, AZ
- Directions:
- Homco Ace Home Center, SW corner of Butler Ave and Babbitt Dr.
This is a totem pole that was carved from a damaged tree and is in front of an Ace Homco Hardware store. Really cool and is fairly new.
[Ronald A Britton, 03/12/2012]The original sign has been covered up with a new sign. So... not only is it not the original tree, it's not even the original sign.
[Terra, 04/17/2023]In the P.T. Barnum tradition of roadside ballyhoo, the sign announces the original tree in headline letters, then admits that the current tree only "represents" the original.

Seems to be a replacement of the old wood-carved woodsman. Perhaps this one is fiberglass?
