@upnorthnews You’ve got to see these amazing sculptures from the US Open Chainsaw Sculpture Championship held in Eau Claire! Jake Rhodes, from Ontario, Canada, was one of the youngest contestants at 28-years-old, and took this video showing all of the sculptures when they were all done. His “Moosin’ Around” sculpture earned the first place award plus the Carver’s Choice award. The twelve talented carvers from around the world began carving these on Thursday, Aug. 10, and finished up on Sunday, Aug. 13. The sculptures were auctioned off to close out the event. 🎥: Jake Rhodes #wisconsin #wisconsinews #travelwisconsin #eauclaire
