This week we travel through the Kuyahoora Valley. The late Paul Keesler, local author and explorer whom we unfortunately never met, was afraid the beautiful Native American word 'Kuyahoora' might get lost to time. It was the Mohawk's name for the West Canada Creek, which Mr. Keesler proposed should be called the Kuyahoora River. The word, literally translated, means "leaping or falling waters," and, fortunately, it seems people are using the word more and more when referring to region and valley formed by this important river.
