A couple more from WCPP from the Manitoba side.
Last rapid/falls before entering the park. This is about 300m long and really cannot show how much it drops or the canyon it runs through.
A storm brewing on Crystal Lake

A few fire ring pictures
From Killarney Park May 2006
From Temagami May 2007
Another from that same trip
One of my favourites from WCPP 2012
Fire burning under the cap rock in the rain
Here's another from a second trip into WCPP 2012
And couple from the family trip 2013
I'm itching to get out there again
Memequay, when we going to see the completed igloo?

Nice firepits there Mihun/Red Langford...
You guys know how to eat on the trail. Nice pictures from the local (WCPP) folks, made my day.
Red, Igloo is close to completion , just a top row left, but due to angle and the lousy sugar snow, each block needs about 20 minutes to be secure. Hope to finish tomorrow.
Spent the afternoon ice fishing today. Can't say enough on how nice it is to be where I am: winter or summer, but the pictures here are making yearn for a paddle.
Looking for some warm temps!
Tell me about it! Can't wait for soft water!
Along the theme that seems current of fire rings and warm weather
enroute now.
In case you are wondering Clem, that's Murkey Creek on highway 584 as you head toward Nakina. There is a boat launch at the bridge, and that rapid is about a kilometre downstream. There is a very short portage river left right before the rapid, or you can shoot it if you hang tight on the left. Why should you know this? Because the fishing right below the rapid is phenomenal in the spring. You can proceed from there down through Arm Lake, Poilu Lake and eventually into Burrows Lake. All good fishing!

Holy Toledo! Memequay just gave away a secret fishing sweet spot!
Those fire pits look inviting. Red makes a nice looking bannock. Clem hauls in a side of beef for the first nights meal. I like the look of that. I'm thinking that sandy fire pit with sea shells calls for a margarita. We miss having a wood burning fireplace. We don't have one in this house. I have an electric faux fireplace instead. It puffs out heat for chilly evenings, but there's nothing like a bit of smoke and flame from a real fire. I have one of those clay pot things next to the patio, but it's somewhere under a snow bank right now. I wonder what Memequay will equip his igloo with? Here's a local igloo looking psychedelic :http://www.brantfordexpositor.ca/2014/01/16/igloo-building-a-cool-family-project
I can't wait for the first campfire.

Yes, is the deck imprinted or figured wood?

That's a superb view Murat. I've been commuting to Toronto downtown for work this week. With one eye on the angry tail lights in front of me, I've kept another eye on the frozen waterfront out to the islands and thought "I wonder what it would be like to paddle there?" The timing of this photo of yours has made my commute entirely worth it. Thanks.
I have fond memories of Toronto, in October '72 my wife and I had a great time there, along with Niagara Falls and Ottawa. We where newly married, nice memories. Nice picture of a city I like, Thanks
Brad: I feel your pain with commuting in our city...too much anger on the roads.
If you're interested to see pics about what a day trip to the islands looks like, I had written a brief trip report on my site here. Pretty interesting place to explore by canoe...you can get into some totally isolated channels with wonderful bird life and serenity, and then be surrounded by a carnival of noise the next.
Sweeper, decks were just plain cherry...nothing remarkable. Ended up decorating them with a wood burning pattern (my other hobby). Did this during the winter when the filler on the canvas was curing. Kind of went nuts with an abstract design on the carrying yoke and seats too but was smart enough to take them off the boat and do the work indoors...
