Massive steel sculpture celebrates community and place
Nestled in the rainforest on the coast of northwestern BC is a towering Grizzly bear sculpture fashioned from dozens of lengths of steel. The 14.5-foot sentinel stands watch over the newly completed Oviatt Bike Park in Kitimat – a gift to the community by long-time Kitimat resident, businessman and philanthropist, Jack Oviatt.
