” Built about 1905 by members of the Stl’atl’imx Nation,the Church of the Holy Cross is remarkable for the beauty and originality of the interior decoration. The craftsmanship of the cedar sculptures,altar, pews, and grave markers of this wooden Carpenter Gothic style building attests to the exceptional skills of the local artisans. The
corner towers, rose window, three spires, and arched windows also contribute to the distinctive character of this ‘cathedral in the wilderness’ ”
