Yukizuri at the Portland Japanese Garden

Gravel courtyard surrounded by trees. Seven poles with conical arrangements of ropes are visible. The setting sun is visible in the background through other trees.

"Yukizuri installations have been completed in the Flat Garden and the Atsuhiko and Ina Goodwin Tateuchi Foundation Courtyard."

"…Straw ropes are cast down from a central pole, almost like the frame of an umbrella. The ropes are then tied to branches to help lift them up with the thought being they’ll better withstand the weight of heavy snowfall or frost."
