HistoryOutdoor

Located at the edge of the Harbor Golf Course and the Marina. It was erected as a tribute to the Mistaseni (Cree for “Big Rock”), a 400-ton glacial boulder that once played an important part in traditional native religion.

This huge rock was blasted in a failed attempt to move it before the flooding of the Qu’Appelle Valley in the 1960s. The cairn contains small chunks of the original rock.
