On the Land where they sit, these grandfathers and grandmothers have been here since time immemorial. For generations, community has gathered to leave red ochre markings on the face of these stones, above the water’s edge - leaving teachings for future generations. "I felt a deep sense of joy and wonderment when I first laid eyes on this rock, hoping to share that feeling of awe. Go sit with Her. She has so many stories to tell."
