This finishes our journey through the history pages of the geological origins of this Heritage River.

A river that commences its flow through the heartland of the Glacial legacy of the last "Ice Age", the Oak Ridges Moraine, and ends its trip by passing the historic area that was the site of "Taiaegon", a once proud village of the Seneca nation, then finally meandering through Humber wetlands before it reaches the very beginnings of the city of Toronto on Humber Bay
