The city of Raymond has seen better times, but is well-known for its metal sculptures around town, many depicting early days of Pacific county. Along Highway 101, the "Raymond Wildlife Heritage Sculptures Corridor" is a display of dozens of rusty metal cutouts -- a mixture of area wildlife and logging industry scenes. In some places, bear and fox frollick next to loads of logs pulled by teams of oxen or horses. The Corridor was created with the work of local artists starting in 1993. For the weirder statues, stop in town. One shows a photographer with a camera and telephoto snapping some wildlife. Another depicts a girl feeding an ice cream cone to a large wolf.
