Before relocating to the other end of the bay we watched a gull fishing at the mouth of the river - something I've never seen them do at home. The gull would circle always in the same direction, hover for a few seconds over the same then dive into the water with hardly a splash. Never did see if it caught anything but it did this for quite a long time.
After a long bike ride, I did a couple of flights with my quad up and down the beach.
On through the boreal forest, we are now seeing sugar maples - we are now in the land of maple syrup. Lots of mining sites for silver, gold, and copper.
We next stop in White River where Winnie the Pooh originated. It's an interesting story that I was unaware of.
Next stop was at Wawa to check out the giant goose. Note that the goose even includes a stream of crap behind the legs (? is this what the artist wanted included...).
The final stop of the day was definitely the best, the pictographs at Agawa Bay. A steep 500m walk thru the woods, then a treacherous tiptoe along the narrow slanted ledge into Lake Superior. Luckily the lake is calm or we wouldn't have been able to attempt it, but the view was worth it!!
Note the ropes to grab onto in case you slip! Not sure how you would haul someone back up though...
Arrived at our favorite location just after 7 p.m., a long day but a good one.
