FM1 Battle Hill

from Forgotten Memories, 2021 by Marc Audet

about

Battle Hill is a song about early over-land transportation, which started with wagon roads. The arrival of automobiles in the early 1900s quickly lead to the need to establish more reliable roadways, and the development of the King’s Highways in Ontario. Battle Hill, a location marked on older topographic maps, is the story of land surveyors in the 1920s faced with routing Highway 17 through the unforgiving landscape of the Canadian Shield.
