This Glacial Erratic is on private land. This makes protection, remediation and storytelling difficult. Federal government could bring “natural monument” laws like they have in Finland. Ask your chosen federal candidate what they think. #SaveNoseCreek #SNCerratic #yyc

Your monthly reminder to teach your kids and network about the historic significance of the Glacial Erratics in Calgary. Quartzite Rock from Jasper, travelled here on glaciers, and sacred sites to the Blackfoot Confederacy. #SaveNoseCreek #SNCerratic #yyc #Airdrie #Balzac #RockyViewCounty

Happy to report the family of the graffiti taggers made sure the tags were covered this weekend. Appreciate that the taggers took responsibility for their actions. A great example of community coming together and protecting our natural monuments. #SaveNoseCreek #SNCerratic #yyc
Bound to happen but that was quick. We need “Natural Monument” protections like in Finland. I’ve heard elders say this erratic is part of the Glacial Erratic Train chipped off the Big Rock as described in the Blackfoot story of “Napi and the Rock.” #SaveNoseCreek #SNCerratic
Well our Glacial Erratic makeover was very short lived. Less than a week and people have already left new graffiti tags on this sacred rock. Please don't. #SaveNoseCreek #SNCerratic #yyc
Notice anything different about our Glacial Erratic? Our dedicated members have been reporting the graffiti to the city and it recieved this make-over! We will continue to monitor, report and push for protections for this sacred site! #SaveNoseCreek #SpeakForNoseCreek #SNCerratic #yyc
The Nose Creek Park Strategy couldn't come soon enough. Since the "Beddington Erratic" is on Private Property we are unable to put protections in to prevent vandalism. This sacred site continues to be the target of mischievous shenanigans. #SaveNoseCreek #SNCerratic #yyc
Snow might be covering some of the graffiti but there are so many vulgar tags on this Glacial Erratic that we've lost the ancient pictographs that were once on this Natural Monument. We hope one day to get permission to restore this rock. #SaveNoseCreek #SNCerratic #yyc #abpoli
This is what happens when we don’t protect our natural monuments. There were ancient pictographs on the Nose Creek Glacial Erratic however years of graffiti have lost that history for us. #SaveNoseCreek #SNCerratic #snchistory #yyc #RockyViewCounty #Airdrie #abpoli #cdnpoli
