I know there's supposed to be some pretty wicked white water on the Dog river. Some where I have a video tape of some guys in creek boats bouncing off cliff sides while dragging their paddle blades on the walls. Huh

I'm sure it was made in the mid to late 90's. Roll Eyes

They sure looked like they were having fun.
But as an experieced white water guy there was no way I would ever try it.
Not my cup tea. Smiley

There's some ref here.

I think it would be tough also...probably lots of pulling canoe over rocks and low water. I live on the Kam..but down from the Fort..water is low. Sounds like a fun thing to do it it is doable. Debbie Could u post if u do this ?

For starters I suggest you get a hold of a copy of "Open Spaces" by Jim Dale Vickery and read the chapter "Meaning and Misery on the Kam-Dog". It's tough going.

Has anyone ever paddled up and over the Height of Land between the Q and Thunder Bay, Ontario, following the old fur trader route of Lac Des Mille Lacs - Lac de Milieu - Height of Land - Dog River - Dog Lake ? Where would I go to locate resources regarding conditions, or what to watch out for, or locations of private lands (I don't want to tresspass)? I know where the provincial parks are.
