Tuesday, May 14, Day 3


We woke up this morning at 6:30 to clear skies, sunshine and -1.7C. There is no wind and the lake is smooth as glass.

 

Morning rounds went quickly. We are getting into a routine!

 
 
 
 
After breakfast we went to the Visitors Centre where there is Wi-Fi. I got caught up on emails and posted 2 days of the Blog. The Centre is full of many fascinating and informative displays. One could easily spend a few hours there. There is a deck behind the Centre which offers a magnificent view.
We will return every couple of days for internet!

 

 
 
 
On the way back to the campground, we stopped at the Lookout Trailhead.  
The Lookout Trail is a 1.9-km loop which climbs up through a young Algonquin forest to the top of a high cliff, follows the cliff brow for 100 metres then descends back down.










In addition to the spectacular view from the cliff top, the trail affords several good opportunities to observe a variety of the park’s geological features.
The trail starts at 455 metres above sea level and ascends to 525 metres.

 

 
 
 
 
 
After a late lunch, we cycled around on our afternoon rounds, stopping to chat with some of the campers. The black flies are out now that it has warmed up!


Marcel decided to try some fishing on our site,
but no bites.
