A person mounted on a pole, now I'm wondering how they were mounted on the pole. Is it because they got their skis stuck?

Yes, it would be a strange scenario, but you can see those silhouettes like a person in profile sitting on something that looks like skis
Maybe he was skiing ans of a sudden a storm came that made him break loose and fly up to that pole 😄

🤣 Great elaboration, love it! I had to ask because...."tarred, feathered, and mounted on a pole while rode out of town" came to mind.🤪
