Duluth – Onigamiinsing

[This post originally included an embedded video that no longer exists at its source.]

I’ve since moved away, but I love coming back to visit my hometown of Duluth. I made this little video one evening this summer at Leif Erikson Park, I thought some of you might enjoy.

When I look out across the lake to the lift bridge and the city, I imagine what a beautiful place Duluth must have been just a few hundred years ago.

I’d like to learn more about Duluth’s pre-European, Ojibwe inhabitants and their written/oral histories related to the area. For example, I grew up near Point of Rocks. What is/was the significance of this area?

I’m far from the DPL, so can anyone recommend reading/viewing material I could access online to learn more about this?
