We were luck a few years back in that Opening Day the
Spoule Bay was ice free ( mostly because it could
not get wind moved past Bates Island). Then again
canoeist could go beyond there as well
Bk and I mumbled something to the rental guy
about wanting something he didn't have as I am
sure those three foot white caps had nothing to do
with us sheepishly getting into vehicle and eventually
ending up on Galareiry wit boat and motor
Actually, we had planned just base camoing on
Opeongo and day tripping the two lakes just across the
bay from the docks but I don't think we would have made
it more than 10' from the dock
Galareiry turned out great til the ice rain on way out
but it was a great discovery that Bk has returned to
a few times and it's worth the trip if you want easy
access and feeling like its farther interior than it is
Ice free all depend on wind . We were icebound by
wind sifted ice on Cedar once and come morning the Lake was
clear sailing
There is always Rock lake when all else fails and lots of
day trips from there are possible.
