Along the portage between Emeral Lake and Plough Lake. It is a beautiful portage with some of the oldest white cedar in the Quetico at the start of the portage on the Emerald Lake end.

Being a geologist that's one of my favorite rocks!!!  Bacon Rock, like Dorothy Molter had on her island -  Iron ore formation and red jasper.  Nice!  Smiley

Yes,  while on a walk in the woods behind the campsite, we found this makeshift place to sit.  It would be a great place to read and watch everything around you.  It was in a low spot.  I only sat for a moment, but I'm sure the person who put it together spent some time there......

Today's POD must be the famous Louisa Falls jacuzzi; definitely worth the trip to relax after a hard day of portaging from Sunday Lake!

Actually, Mary is in the water at the falls between Sheridan and Carp.  Louisa Falls is much bigger!!!

What canoe is that in the POD today?  Looks like a hybrid tripping/marathon canoe.  I bet it's fast!

Yes,  that is my newest canoe, an Itascan.  19 feet long.  Wooden gunnels.  It took me a while to be proficient at getting it over my head.  It is WIDER where you grab it to throw it up over your head!!  I actually developed tendinitis the first year I had it.  It is a beautiful canoe though and rides very well in big waves and it perpenducilar waves.....Kim
