Explore Alberta #1 - Bragg Creek

Nice park. Canada has the most amazing places to visit. Icey cold mountain streams are perfect for catching rainbow trout. In the first photo, there are a couple of rock piles. Do you know the significance of these piles? I have seen them in various locations across the globe but have not found one good explanation...

They are called "inukshuk" and are monuments made of unworked stones that are used by the Inuit for communication and survival. The traditional meaning of the inukshuk is "Someone was here" or "You are on the right path."

These in particular are probably meaningless, just build by families visiting the area.

Thank you for the explanation. That makes sense.
