Ahh, so it is, didn't see it at first. The color of the pine needles? on the ground and the orange in the rock really stands out.

Lots of people camping there for the night in Sept. We had a solo paddler vist our campsite and later we visted his. It was fun talking with him. It was our first quetico trip, and the first time I heard the term 'decompress'.

Thanks Starwatcher: it was a good week to be in the woods. Jackfish rarely gathers the wind in the direction you need to travel. I found a photo of the falls from nearly the same angle from May of 08.

Great pic of the Tamaracks in color. I can see the birches behind them have their leaves down already. So how far behind the birches and red maples do the Tamaracks turn? They usually begin with a lighter golden color??? These might be ready to drop their needles?? When I've gone in early Oct the Tamaracks are still green, but the small red maple bushes and birch are nice. Northern Indiana is just barely in the Tamarack range and where they are it's closed for deer season when they turn.

Here's a pamarama of the west end of Jackfish Bay, todays' POD.

Beautiful picts! I wonder if the larches are kicked into a color change by a lower temperature than the decidedous trees???? Beautiful nevertheless.
