Bay Islands National Park

According to native legend
Kitchi-Kiwana, the last of a race of giants,
fell with a mountain in his arms which shattered
into the 30 000 islands. The indentations of
his shoulders can be seen on his favourite island,
Beausoleil, where he returned to sleep each
night. When he died, the natives covered him
with rocks to form what is now called Giant's
Tomb Island. The flickering northern lights
can be seen whenever his spirit visits the islands
and the Great God Manitou lights fires to guide
him.
