Park / Area History

According to the oral history of the Plains Cree, the hills to the east of Duval were the last things the Great Spirit built during creation; the name Last Mountain Lake commemorates that tradition. One of the oldest parks in the system, it was established in 1963 after three years of talks between the Govan Nokomis Fish and Game League and the province. There are now four local governments that provide funding. In 2013, we celebrated our 50th Anniversary as a park.
