Bushwhacking With Deer Flies, Jim Baird's Wanderings - July 2009

My aunt, uncle, brother and I wanted to do a little exploring in an area we had not spent much time in before. After paddling and portaging we aimed our compass for a small lake off in the bush. The first kilometer was up a steep hill but we were rewarded with a beautiful view which included the lake we left our canoe at. Photo (c) Jim Baird 2009

The deer flies were so bad this day that at times it seemed like they would block out the sun. Here's Steve, Peggy, Bonnie (dog) and I heading down hill. We made it to the lake for a little fishing swimming and lunch, then turned around and headed home. Photo (c) Ted Baird 2009
