It was a day full of tradition outside at the rock pond at UMD’s Bagely Nature Center.

The Ojibwe Winter Games made a return to the Center’s rock pond after coming to the campus last year.

The games featured traditional events such as “hoop and spear” and “snow snake.”

Participants could also learn to use an atlatl, a traditional spear-throwing tool used all over the world that goes back 60,000 years.
