Agawa Bay, part of Ontario's Lake Superior Provincial Park (est. 1944), is located 90 km NW of Sault Ste Marie, Ontario, on Lake Superior's ruggedly scenic north shore. Agawa means 'sacred place' in Ojibwa; the First Peoples have dwelled in the region for nearly ten millennia. Precambrian rocks, some of the Earth's oldest dating between 1-2.5 billion years, appear near the broad pebble beach. This slide show features shoreline vistas, beach forest and foliage close-ups.

Lake Superior Provincial Park's Sand River features rapids and three waterfalls as it flows over pink granitic rocks. Colourful close-ups and landscapes accompanied by Native flute ensemble. The Sand River flows through an ancient lava-filled fault in the pink granite. The softer black lava diabase eroded, forming a gorge. Tectonic forces folded and faulted these Canadian Shield rocks. Later glaciers gouged striations and fluting. The Ojibwe, who have lived here for 2 millennia, call the...

Crystal-clear and warm (for Lake Superior!) water, a sandy beach and interesting shoreline plutonic rock formations make Katherine Cove a good visit in Canada's Lake Superior Provincial Park. Katherine Cove's headland and shore present the boreal forest and igneous rocks. Sandy beaches on both sides of the headland surround boulders left by the last glaciation. A provincial park since 1944, these woods and shores were home to the Ojibwe. Over millennia, glaciers and waves smoothed and shaped...

Panoramic landscapes of Agawa Bay on Lake Superior's rugged north shore, interspersed with foliage close-ups. John Huling's solo native flute 'Echo Canyon' complements the monochrome and colour mages. Noted for its cobble beach and November storms, Agawa (Anishinaabe 'sacred place') is an Ojibwa homeland. This rugged Lake Superior north shore originated in volcanism nearly a billion years ago. It emerged from glaciation just nine thousand years ago. Today, it represents a transition zone...

Black spruce and balsam crowd the shore; yellow birch and white cedar stand further back. Common Loons call among rounded Precambrian hills. The nature images are accompanied by First...
