Additional information
Located within the territory of the Opaskwayak Cree Nation, between Kiche Maskanow and Saysee Road, with Kiche Maskanow being the road with the easiest access from outside the community via a junction leading to the south of Provincial Highway 10 and then NW to the site of the property
There is no network of improved roadways providing vehicular access to the grounds. The only access is via two marginally-maintained roads that cross between Kiche Maskanow and Saysee Road to the north and south of the graves.
Burial records can be consulted by contacting the Opaskwayak Cree Nation Office.
