Stones that move

There are a lot of mysteries hidden in the mists and shallows of Frog Lake, some ancient, some historical and some the stuff of legends. There are stories told of huge snakes and serpents battling it out in sky and water with the thunderbirds, colorful tales of a mysterious race of Little People, and strange legends that tell of moving rocks - huge boulders that move up and down the shoreline on their own.

There is supposed to be some rational scientific explanation for the mysterious movement of these rocks, strong undercurrents, changing water levels, and the continuous displacement of silt and sediments by wind and wave.

Far more interesting is the colorful local legend about the magical Little People who live somewhere near the southeastern end of Frog Lake. It is said that they are the ones who move the rocks, to confuse any humans who would try to find the path to their secret world. Feared and respected by local Native people, who leave offerings in exchange for good blessings, they are most often seen by children and old people of open spirit and pure hearts. It is said that they don't play tricks or pull pranks on unsuspecting humans, they leave that to Wesakechak, the greatest prankster of them all.
