"Lower Fort Garry National Historic Site of Canada is a former fur trade post, once the most extensive in western Canada. Situated near Winnipeg, Manitoba, 30 km. upstream from the junction of the Assiniboine and Red Rivers, this 85-acre site encompasses a four-acre Hudson’s Bay Company fort comprised of several buildings within a stone wall, a number of restored and reconstructed buildings outside the walls, as well as a portion of the camping sites of over 2,000 Ojibway and Swampy Cree people who attended the signing of Treaty 1. This historic site is operated by Parks Canada."

In the Summer of 2008, I went to visit Lower Fort Garry knowing it was fully staffed with people in period costume. I captured over seventy-five images that day which I then edited down to sixty.....hope you enjoy them.
