The James West bronze statue of George Washington and Seneca Indian Leader Guyasuta that sits on Mt. Washington, overlooking a frosty New Years Day 2018 Pittsburgh Point. The statue depicts a meeting when Washington was surveying for a westward expansion of white settlements that were in violation of a treaty that had been signed and fiercely opposed by the Indian tribes. According to Washington's journals, "we agreed to part as friends".
