The Blue Lake
The story surrounding the Blue Lake is a simple one. The daughter of a high born chief was bathing in its crystal waters and wore the Tikitapu - (sacred greenstone neck heirloom ornament.) The piece was held about her neck by a tightly woven flax cord, but managed to dislodge itself while she swam. A frenzied search followed as slaves and family searched for the sacred tiki of her tribe. Alas it wasn't to be found. The blue waters of Tikitapu still hide the Tikitapu that was lost so long ago.
