A full moon on a chilly Friday evening over the Fort Gibraltar main cabin marked the opening of Festival du Voyageur.
The jigging and fiddling to the Red River jig warmed things up all evening long in the kitchen and sleeping cabin.
The Festival features record number of musical acts such as Mad’moiZele GIRAF in the MTS Riviere Rouge tent.
Famous for its ice and snow sculptures, the Festival delivers once again this year.
