The Story of Spirit Island
A different perspective of Alberta's iconic Spirit Island.
The prime view in comments.
As told by an old First Nations myth, a boy and girl from two different tribes met on Spirit Island once a week. Although they soon fell in love, their tribes remained enemies. After the girl confessed the story of her forbidden love to her father (a chief), he banned her from ever returning to Spirit Island. Heartbroken, her lover continued to visit the island, hoping to meet the girl once more. He never saw her again and died on that very island. Legend has it that his spirit still haunts the island, desperately searching for the girl to this very day. :-((
Friday's here! Have a wonderful Friday and weekend!
