TRAVELS & OBSERVATIONS

Beginning about 40,000 years ago early man was recording their memories in cave paintings. Much later, he began to write poems and prose. But only in the past 100 years has it become possible for us to record and interpret the world around us through photography.

My wish is that these photographs will speak to you of the world as I have seen and experienced it.

WABAKIMI PROVINCIAL PARK AND CANOE PRESERVE


WABAKIMI WILDERNESS CANOE PRESERVE

Only once in a while does the opportunity come to explore and experience a true wilderness.  This is what we will be doing the first week of July 2015 when 8 of us canoe into the center of the Wabakimi Wilderness Preserve in northern Ontario on a Sierra Club Outing led by Terry DeFraties.  

Wabakimi is the world's largest wilderness canoe preserve with world-class wilderness canoeing, including over 2,000 kilometers of lake and river routes. The Preserve is a pristine wilderness with opportunities for wildlife viewing as well as sport fishing and hunting. It is situated on the traditional lands of several First Nation and Aboriginal communities. 

After the trip I plan to have several photos of this area to share but in the meantime here is a link to some photos from Wabakimi Provincial Park and Wilderness Preserve.
