Hogs Back rises from the Nanny Goat Hill, a distinct ridge of land that commands a sudden, sharp perspective over the moving waters of the Rideau River. It lies 6.1 km south of Gatineau, ON (from Gatineau, ON: bearing 170°T), and is situated 9.9 km west-north-west of Ottawa. The air here holds a particular weight, catching the spray from the nearby Prince of Wales Falls where the current breaks against the limestone shelf. As evening light stretches across the terrain, the water takes on a bruised, metallic sheen, casting long, cool shadows that settle into the crevices of the rock. Dow's Lake sits just a short distance away, its surface often mirroring the pale transition of the sky as the day retreats into the quiet of the riverbank. The industrial history of Hogs Back is marked by the relentless necessity of taming the flow of the Rideau River to serve the needs of a growing region. The water power that once drove the timber trade and local milling efforts has long since yielded to the steady, modern pulse of infrastructure and public utility. Despite the constant movement of people and the proximity of institutional life, a stillness persists along the shoreline, where the geology of the Nanny Goat Hill resists the clutter of the nearby city. Residents and visitors alike find themselves drawn to the edge of the falls, watching the water churn with a force that feels indifferent to the passing of the seasons or the shifts in local commerce.
