The skies dotted with V-shaped formations of Geese on their annual migration; the night stillness broken by the call of waterfowl on their way to their winter home. Covered in a blanket of snow, the RM of Grahamdale offers spectacular winter scenery. Clean, crystal- clear snowdrifts sparkling in the sunlight, or etched in blue shadows under the light of a brilliant moon. 2 1 Velvet wintry nights with the fiery undulations of the northern lights. Trees covered with a mantle of 12 hoarfrost, sparkling like diamonds in the morning sun.

LAKE Springtime in the RM of Grahamdale steals slowly over everything. The animals give birth to their young, ST. MARTIN the tree buds open, and flowers begin to bloom. A mantle of green creeps slowly over the ground and trees, 5 6 and the migratory birds return to the area for the summer. The call of the meadowlark, the caw of the 3 7 crow, the honking of the geese, the spawning of fish in the creeks all point to the arrival of spring.

PORTAGE UNIQUE ATTRACTIONS IN THE AREA: BAY Largest Meteorite in Western Canada: Though very few people know, the residents of the St. Martin and Gypsumville area are living next to (or even on) a terrestrial impact crater. Approximately 220 Million Years ago an asteroid hit that spot creating a crater approximately 40 km in diameter.

Steep Rock Cliffs: The cliffs of Steep Rock are made of limestone and over thousands of years wave action has molded them into sheer drops, caves and other unusual geological formations. The rocks are also a habitat for LAKE the Crocus. This is one of the most photographed locations in Manitoba.
