Narrator - Before beginning to visit the land and hunt, we settle comfortably in a spot near the water and out of the wind, with good peripheral vision so we can see far, see everything that moves.
Jean-Baptiste Bellefleur - I almost saw something!
Narrator - We'll also collect a good supply of firewood, since the nights are cool and the fresh air gives us an appetite.
Music - Rodrigue Fontaine, Bill St-Onge, Luc Bacon
