Bear statue, w/mountain backdrop, a setting within Manning Park Resort, captured during a recent stay. iPad Mini 4 camera.
It is possible that dragon flies don't bite, but they can be ferocious against each other as I found out last summer: I saw two very large dragon flies on the grass and decided to take a photo until I noticed that one had finished eating the head of the other. I was shocked since I had never seen such a thing.

Messing around on some easy climbs. Gruinard Bay, Scotland. iPhone XR.
Easy climb? 😁
That's how I felt about climbing when I was in my 20's. Nowadays I can only climb a few feet using a ladder.
Oh yes, slabs can be deceptive. I'm not 100% up on my North American grades but I think its only about 5.2 (v-diff uk grade)
The key to whatever grade it is if you can stop yourself from ending up at the bottom in a hurry if you slip!
On a tangent: I used to leave my back lawn grow out every few weeks. People complained about it. It was surrounded by a 4 food slatted wood fence, and I would see the bees and frogs frolicking in the higher grass. I also refused to use fertilizer and herbicides too. (Call me weird, but I had quite a menagerie in the backyard) And butterflies, and two years, a MASSIVE jumping spider that I caught once, sitting on the top of a blue spruce where her nest was, glaring at me, with a yellow jacket wasp in her mouth. 'Hey, I got nothing on you. You keep eating those damn wasps, I'll build you a custom home!'
We had butterflies too. I would put out post edible fruit, and the moths and butterflies would swarm most of it. Nature is so beautiful, if we just stop competing with the neighbors, and start competing to support it, we would all be so much better off... /SoapBox
As far as I know it’s from Central America- Honduras or Guatemala. I have several pieces that are similar.
It’s a small box. Part of a collection of boxes I have.
More Denver Botanic Gardens...

Lake Tahoe July 2021 shot on my iPhone 11 Pro. No effects or filters added.
What a coincidence. We have a collection of boxes from Amazon!
I'm a sucker for chainsaw sculpture, especially the grizzly variety.
Looks like you were outside of the smokey part of the province. Right now the smoke from the interior of BC is hanging over SW Alberta like a funeral pall.
