There are many things that could cross Cole's mind and evoke emotion to inspire something to carve. Maybe the spirit bear itself, a fire, the sea etc. but something that has crossed my mind is the importance of the tree. The tree carried the sparrows which made him realise the act of forgiveness and took away his anger, or maybe it's because the storm had struck the tree which almost killed him which made him realise the importance of life and savoring that. Perhaps it could be because of the mysterious spirit bear who hid in the shadows and behind trees and who had given him scars not only physically but emotionally as well. There are hidden meanings, metaphors that we would not understand that could portray Cole's life through a tree and that's why I think Cole could and would carve a Tree at the bottom of the Totem Pole.
