Title: Re: Canoe Trip near Saulte Ste Marie Post by Mk631 on Mar 5th, 2012 at 3:27am
I looked into this some years ago after taking the Agawa Canyon tour train from Saulte Ste Marie & seeing the territory. Most of what I found were river trips, so not exactly like Quetico as I know it. You can do an Agawa River trip, but I think it's organized & whitewater.
Sand River looked more appealing (start w/train from Frater to Sand Lake) -- still a river trip, but lots of fishing, etc from what I've read about (probably myccr). I've been interested in the Mississagi River also - upstream from Rocky Island Lake (good info on myccr also & I've got a personal report from some guy in SSM). You see the Mississagi R valley driving from Thessalon to Chapleau & it's quite beautiful -- the trip is upstream from the road, so quite a bit more remote. I've wondered if Lake Superior PP has anything like that but haven't investigated. People canoe some in Kilarney PP & it's beautiful, but pretty small. How about Algonquin? More people, marked portages, latrines, longer portages...but about same distance as SSM for you. Good luck! -Tom |
