For some of you, the area of Opasquia Provincial Park may not be all that familiar.  The map below roughly covers the park.  I've added the route that Marten took on his trip (red dashed lines) and routes that have been documented by other sources (red dotted lines).  In addition, I've added notations for the locations of cabins operated by Big Hook Outfitters within the park.  (Note: The cabin on Burnt Lake is not technically inside park boundaries.)

Marten (and I) believe that there are potentially two additional linkages--Mossberry to Joint Lake and Southwest to Indian Lake that could add 2 additional loop possibilities to the park.  (Indian Lake is not marked on this map, but lies just to the east of Tulibee Lake.)  Both of these links would likely entail a rather lengthy portage.  In addition, there is a historical route that would take you to Island Lake, MB (large lake in the NW corner of the map) that would connect from Cocos Lake and thru Hilton Lake.  However, this would involve at least one day's camping in Manitoba and would be substantially outside the boundaries of OPP.
