Parks Canada – Pukaskwa National Park
Project Details
Location
Pukaskwa National Park, Ontario 627, Heron Bay, ON, Canada
Waves roll across immense Lake Superior and crash against a remote granite shore. Tracts of windswept spruce and pine reach beyond the horizon from towering cliffs and along secluded sandy beaches. And the culture of the Anishinaabe First Nations connects Pukaskwa National Park's wilderness to the powerful richness of an ancient human story.
