BTW, if you enjoy reading canoe and/or hiking trip accounts and looking at accompanying photos, you might check out this website -- Algonquin Adventures. algonquinadventures.com I occasionally read a few of the accounts to find interesting places to explore, or figure out where there's certain wildlife to be found, etc.. There are sometimes some hilarious stories. Couple of years ago, I was considering a trip along a certain route, but I wasn't sure if the water levels would be sufficient. Luckily I read a couple of accounts on here first. One woman wrote of spending about 2 days pushing the family's canoe along through creeks that had turned to leech-filled mud, and that the bears were so annoying that everyone packed it back out of there the next day. lol... Actually, water levels are getting to be a bit of a problem up here in many years. The summers are getting hotter and drier, and winters with little snow compared to the past, so some of the creeks and even some rivers have been drying up by July. Last summer was the first in quite awhile that most of my usual paddling destinations stayed steady through much of the season. We've had quite a bit of snow already this winter, so I expect this might be another good paddling season unless we get some kind of a freak drought come summertime.
