Ok so I was checking out the famous map, and specifically was checking out an area of particular interest to me, (I must be the only hiker here) and saw a location termed as "Bog Lemming site" near Islet Lake. What exactly is a Bog Lemming, and why is this worth mapping out on a well...Map?

From Bob McElroy's site: "Locally significant mammal population site (18 ha)."

Thanks Jeff, guess we are both up late. I will have to look out for this Lemming. On another note, "Lemming" now returns a search result on this site. Odd, eh? Anyone ever seen one of these in APP?

Wow, that thing looks pretty cool! I'll have to pick a campsite near the Bog Lemming site next trip and keep an eye out.

Saw that "bog lemming" designation on the map, and wondered about it, too.

Thanks for the photo, SM.

Now I really have to get there to see the little guys.
