I knew I had been through there....

if it is the same bend that I am thinking...we saw 4 moose at the bottom of the river on our way down for our spring fishing trip one year...must be a popular watering hole.

thanks Mike for the picture....it has got the juices flowing for sure!

Where is this ?

February 19 2009, 8:47 PM 

I'll say 1. The creek between Merchant and Big Trout or
2. Opeongo R. near Kitty L or
3. Crow R. near Malic L.

This is a hard one to guess!

February 20 2009, 10:54 AM 

No, it is not the Madawaska river nor Lake LaMuir at the portage from Hogan Lake.

Re: This is a hard one to guess!

No Harry, it is not that stretch between Cache and Tanamakoon, nor it is either lake.
Rory, nope not Casey Lake or Daisy Lake for that matter.

Re: This is a hard one to guess!

Now that would be too easy Rory, given everyone's knowledge of my love for the Maple Creek area.
Nope, not Maple Creek.

Hmmm . . .

February 20 2009, 6:20 PM 

It certainly reminds me of the Maple Creek neck of the woods, up around Kawa and Totem, but it looks like a place with a bit of seasonal running water. Surely, it is in the north side of the Park, right?

February 20 2009, 8:50 PM 

You got me, Markus. I know you love that area, as do I, and that put-in looks so familiar, I'm convinced I've been there before. Here's another wild guess: Petawawa River, between Daisy L and Little Misty?

Re: Reverse psychology not working...

February 20 2009, 10:25 PM

Mark, Seasonal water...I thought all Algonquin was Seasonal? heh heh
ok, you're right though, clue#1=north side of The Park.

hi Tenzing,

Nope, not Catfish Lake.

71, Clue#2, this photo was taken on a canoe route(i.e. not a backwater lake), and the landing is at a regular maintenance portage.

Crow River between Big Crow lake and Crow Bay (Lavieille)

 
 



209.91.173.18

hmmmm....

February 24 2009, 4:50 PM 

Last guess for me..........Amble du fond River?

 
 



99.233.239.208

Re: hmmmm....

February 24 2009, 5:01 PM 

Nope not Crow River, or Amble du fond, or more correctly Amable du Fond
You're all thinking along the wrong line here;
Clue#3(Last clue) it is a lake, not a river or a creek or stream, but a lake.

Fishing you say? Mark Scarlett Wins!

February 24 2009, 11:44 PM 

Yessirre, Radiant Lake it is.
I'm sure many people had visions of a sandy Radiant Lake in their minds, to not even think of the image as being Radiant Lake, in most cases, many thought it was a river or creek.

Looking back at Radiant Lake, as seen from the portage landing to Shoal Lake.

This is what the view was like, from the canoe in the shot above: Looking at the take-out to Shoal Lake(On Radiant).
