The mural depicts several eras of time throughout our Chehalis history. Eliza Barrett, a pivotal founder of Chehalis, and her first husband Schuyler Saunders are presented overlooking the lush Chehalis River Valley. Green forests represent the area’s natural beauty and Mount St. Helens is seen in the distance, in its post-1980 eruption form. The plane carrying the “Welcome to Chehalis” banner is a replica of Kenneth Arnold’s CallAir A-2 airplane which he was piloting when he made his famous UFO sighting at Mt. Rainier in 1947 after taking off from the Chehalis Airport. Did he see an actual UFO? Just in case, we’ve added a bit of extraterrestrial whimsy to the far left in the mural. The mural is located on the north wall of Ewe and I in Downtown Chehalis at 566 N Market Blvd.
