Trip down the fjord

A trip down the Saguenay fjord to see the statue of Notre-Dame-du-Saguenay built some 500 ft above sea level on a rocky outcrop as a gesture of thankfulness by early settlers. Weighs 3-1/2 tons and 23 feet high and had to be cut into 14 pieces to get it to the site from the boat delivery point. Made out of pine and covered in thin lead!
