In 1872, Gabriel Dumont started a ferry across the South Saskatchewan River, about 10 km upstream from Batoche. People called the spot Gabriel's Crossing.
His ferry was a big flat boat, about 22 feet long and 12 feet wide. It was held by a rope across the river and moved with oars. Gabriel put up a sign with his prices in English, French, and Cree.
We don't know his real prices, so in this game we'll pretend.
