CHURCHILL RIVER, Saskatchewan The Saskatchewan portion of the Churchill is actually a series of connecting lakes - flat water connected by rapids and waterfalls. Bald Eagles nest along the shores, and colonies of pelicans and cormorants inhabit small rocky islands in its headwaters. A voyage down the Churchill River is a journey through quintessential Canadian wilderness. This is rolling, rocky Canadian Shield country in Northern Saskatchewan, a spectacular backdrop for time travel. Today's canoeists paddle by ancient rock paintings, and absorb the ancient native traditions that continue to this day.
