At the centre of the road leading into the quiet hamlet of Fir Mountain stands an old hand-operated water pump, a weathered yet steadfast relic of a bygone era. Its sturdy iron frame, worn smooth by countless hands, tells stories of a time when fetching water was a daily ritual and every drop was earned through effort. Once a lifeline for travellers, farmers, and local families, this pump served as more than just a source of water— it was a gathering point, a place for brief conversations and shared moments under the prairie sky.
