Page 19
Just a few minutes north of Saskatoon, where the South Saskatchewan River and the Opimihaw Creek meet, is the Wanuskewin Heritage Park. This was a camping, hunting and meeting site used by the Aboriginal people of the northern Plains for more than 6,000 years. It is now home to one of the most important archeological sites in the world, as well as a visitor's centre, life-size sculptures of buffalo and hunters and walking trails.
