North of Superior

The continuing story of Baron and Naomi's trip up north
​

Michipicoten

Michipicoten First Nation is in a remote area on the rugged shore of Lake Superior. Tucked between the rocky outcrops there are also long sandy beaches....

There's also an installation from the Group of Seven Touring Route, which is a recent new series of installations to showcase where some of Canada's most famous artists painted their iconic works. There are sturdy, permanent easels set up with copies of the paintings that were done at that spot. This is the one at Sand Beach, Michipicoten. There were also easels at Katharine Cove, Chippewa Falls, and Pancake Bay. There's a map available from Ontario Parks that shows where they all are.

Another Sunset

Back at Old Woman Bay for the night, Baron and Naomi went to the beach to watch the sun set....
Picture
It was cold and extremely windy, so Naomi wrapped herself in a colourful, warm afghan....
Picture
Picture
Would there be a colourful sunset this evening?
Picture
Baron's hat kept blowing away, so he took it off, and sat down beside Naomi....
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
it was too cloudy on the horizon, so there was just a little red glow for a few minutes....

Katharine Cove

It rained all night and was still raining as they headed south to Katharine Cove...
Picture
But it looked like it might clear some...
Picture
Picture
Picture
A while later it did clear a little....
Picture
...and Baron hiked out on the rocky point....

Last Day Up North

They woke to yet another rainy day....
Picture
But rain or no rain, they were going to go out anyway....
Picture
....and enjoy the scenery....
Picture
Picture
Picture

The sun did venture out occasionally between rain storms....
Picture
Picture
Picture
At Batchewana Bay they stopped for a break....

Then stopped in at the nearby Trading Post at Pancake Bay.....
Picture
Where Naomi fell in love with a cute stuffed bear and moose.....
Picture
...so Baron bought them for her....
Picture
Then to Gros Cap again for one final sunset....
