The Stopping Place

from Peskowesk by Mark Brennan

/

about

The Kejimkujik area of Nova Scotia has been a traditional stopping place for the Mikmaq for thousands of years as they followed the large mammals through the region, setting up hunting and fishing camps on the waterways and lakes of the area. Their 4000 year history here is evident in many places including sacred areas where petroglyphs can be seen.

After three days of heavy rain, streams and rivers ran high, softening their sounds. Here the microphones were placed near such a stream in the forest as it flowed towards the larger Peskowesk Brook. I stopped here for quite a while, listening and watching, enjoying the water creeping through the saturated mosses as it moved through this forested wetland, the singing Northern birds every present.
