Canadian
The 2008 Canadian trip began at Brown’s Clearwater Resort outside of Mine Center, ON. After one full day of lake paddling, we wound up at McQuaint’s Castle: an enormous log cabin built on the shores of White Otter Lake. Another day of lake paddling brought us to the Turtle River, where we remained for the rest of the trip. High water led to fantastic rapids, which were paddled well by all. While the weather was less than perfect, everyone enjoyed the few dry evenings when we could take a dip or look at the stars. The fishing was wonderful, especially at the first rapids camp site and Horse Falls, where nearly everyone caught several fish. While more sun would have been enjoyable, everyone had a great time and agreed this was probably the best trip they’d ever been on.
