Similar to yesterday's double-drive-day that allowed us to stay in Algonquin an additional day previous, today was another double-drive-day from Goulais River to Kenora, so that we could enjoy a day off from driving to canoe on Lake-of-tlhe-Woods, by Kenora.
So, it was 100kms, snack, w/c, gas; 300kms, snack, w/c, gas; 300kms, snack, w/c, gas; 300kms, snack, w/c, gas; 150kms, set-up camp at Anicinabe Park, sleep. Phew! If we had been on our bikes, we would have taken a million pictures today.
The light was fantastic today, as it was on a unique angle that made the landscape glow and threw shadows across the trees in a way that highlighted the bark and coloured leaves. At one point today, out from a forest dirt road onto the secondary highway we were on descended a pick-up truck with two day-glow cap and jacket hunters. We had wondered in the past weeks about why so many camp-grounds were closed now and seeing those capped and robed hunters suddenly made the closures make sense, as there was no way their glowing bulk would be mistaken for a moose, elk, or deer - but we might be! We arrived at Anicinabe Park in Kenora at about 10pm and were pleased to find a nice spot for two nights.
