Tales of the Past- River of Tears

1 sound

To connect to the present, try connecting to the past. The falls you can hear are part of a First Nations story. A story that follows three sisters and their grief at finding their husbands bodies after they lost their lives while hunting. They cried and cried until the Gods turned them into the three waterfalls of the valley and their warrior husbands turned themselves into rainbows. Listen as the trickle of tears becomes a raging waterfall.
