Opublikowano: 2026-10-22

A calm, slow telling of a true story to help you drift off. The voyageurs’ yearly paddle from Montréal to Grand Portage on Lake Superior: the birchbark canoes, the Ottawa River and the French River, the songs and the camps along the shore, and the meeting place at the end of the road. Part one of three stories about the fur trade. Soft rain plays throughout. No sudden sounds. This episode was created with the assistance of AI, using an AI model of the host’s voice.
