Not worth the money. There is a free suspension bridge in Lynn Canyon not far from this attraction that has free admission, less tourists, and better scenery. Go there!

this is a most worthwhile spot for young and old alike--the suspension bridge is something you'll remember and the totems are lovely---beautiful scenery!
