Opisquia has intrigued me - but pricey to get to.


Well, Bill, you can keep cost down somewhat if you’re willing to use the heavy-ass canoes available through the only resort that exists up there.   When MagicPaddler, DentonDoc & I  travelled there a few years ago, there were only three canoes ... & one of those had a major crack in it!   The park itself is vast & pristine, with only  very occasional sign of First Nation or maybe a very remote resort cabin.  Portages and campsites are, at best, problematic. Fishing for walleye and northerns is probably unmatched.  Wildlife spotting opportunities are extremely good.

It’s a lot of work but, yeah, I’m pretty sure I'll go back... especially to one or two particular spots!
