A Scout

Here at the top of the Point, we have a new platform, which one can go onto. And one can sit at its base, and take in the views of the mighty river.

Eastward, the Macdonald-Cartier Bridge spans the river.

The next symbol is the bear, another integral part of the lives of the Anishinaabe.

The path continued.

The moose is known to live in this area, and well known to the indigenous peoples of the region.

When the Point was redeveloped, the presence of two statues and their return was meant to be part of that. This is one of them, an Anishinaabe scout, now looking to the northeast. We'll get a look at his counterpart tomorrow; the two statues once stood together, but having them apart works better, as now the scout stands out on his own, and is not in a subservient position.

These two boulders stand nearby- I suspect the markings are recent, and by an artist, given their proximity to the Gallery.
