À propos de cet audio

In this episode, we talk about visiting one of the most unique and meaningful sites in Haida Gwaii: Skung Gwaii, or Red Cod Town. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it’s protected not only for its stunning coastal beauty but for its powerful cultural history. Host Norm sits down with Teresa Russ, a Haida Watchman, to explore how visitors can respectfully engage with this sacred place.


Teresa shares tips for travelers: arrive with reverence, listen more than you speak, and understand that you are walking among ancestral remains. Learn about the site's protected status, how natural events like windstorms have revealed lost artifacts, and what protocols help ensure this place remains untouched for future generations. Whether it’s understanding Haida protocols, the meaning behind mortuary poles, or navigating remote terrain, this episode is your cultural primer.
