106 ICE placement #15

We had a very good day today. We ended up spending the majority of it on the water with one of the community members. He works as a guide during the summers, and apparently he is quite renown, and I could totally see why today. He brought all over the lake, stopping to show us all sort of neat areas, teaching us some of the history. It was so great. I did take pictures, but my internet connection has not endured my latest attempts at downloading the pictures.

Our guide brought us to painted rock, where there is actual paintings that they guess are about 1000 years old. These things, although slightly faded, were so cool. I have never seen anything like it before (outside of movies that is). It was so wonderful. Then he brought us to warrior hill, where the men used to train to become warriors. We then saw an Ojibway warrior nest, a place that someone would hide our and ambush the Sioux… he said that when they were at war, the water was most likely red due to the blood. He then brought us to twin falls, it was so beautiful.. while there we saw about 5 eagles!! So cool! We ended stopping a few more places.

A good day!
