Spirits of Kildala Fog















In 1982 I spent five months living alone in a small cabin on Kildala Arm, near Kitamaat Village. One morning I awoke to a thick blanket of fog filling the bay. Throughout the morning I watched as the sun began to break through, and the fog bank slowly dispersed. I took this photo from the shore of Atkins Bay and later, digitally added the dugout-canoe images.
Before my time, such sights were common place along these waterways. In 1983 I took photos of the last two dugout canoes to have been used for traditional Oolichan food-fish harvesting on the Kildala River.
