Lorette Falls, near Québec City
There was a wealth of natural resources in the Huron-Wendat community of Wendake. This is Lorette Falls, also known as Kabir Kouba Falls, meaning “the river of a thousand detours” in Huron-Wendat. The waterfall is part of the Saint-Charles River, which is known as Akiawenrahk in Huron-Wendat. In the background stands the now-defunct Reid flour mill.
