North of Superior

Before heading back to Baron's time, he and Naomi decided to take one last outing in her time before returning to his time....

Heading North

The first day started out with periods of heavy rain as they headed down the Trans Canada Highway west towards Sault Ste Marie. They took a little break at Serpent River during a 'dry spell' to stretch their legs...
Picture
Picture
Picture
It was nice to just get out for a bit....
Picture
Picture
Most of the trees were almost bare, and there were mushrooms popping up everywhere through the fallen leaves....

Rest Stop

Heading towards Sault Ste Marie, they stopped for a break at the picnic area along the St. Joseph Island causeway on the north shore of Lake Huron....

​"Would you like a snack?"
Picture
There were still a few coloured leaves on the trees....
Picture
..and there were clusters of huge mushrooms everywhere....
Picture
Picture
It was just nice to be able to stop and get out for a little....
Picture
Picture
After arriving in the Soo, they continued on to land's end at Gros Cap where the Great Lakes open up into Lake Superior...
Picture
It had stopped raining, and there was actually a bit of blue sky peaking through
​- over the American side....
Picture
Hopefully tomorrow would be better weather....

Searchmont

It had rained all night, with more in the forecast, but first priority the next morning was to go to Canadian Tire...
Picture
...to buy some new light bulbs to replace the burned out brake and signal lights they had discovered last night.  Safety first!
Picture
Then with all the RV lights working again, they headed north to Searchmont. It was dull and drizzly....
Picture
....along the Goulais River....
Picture
...but it stayed 'dry' long enough for Baron and Naomi to go for a horseback ride....
Picture
Picture
They rode through a birch forest where the ground was overgrown with lichens....
Picture
Picture
Picture
Naomi spotted some ruins in the trees....and got off her horse to investigate...
Picture
It was an old abandoned church....
Picture
...from a time long ago, when the town had seen better days.
Picture
Picture
So they rode on...
Picture

Northland Creek

While exploring the Searchmont area, Baron and Naomi came across a waterfall.....
Picture
....cascading down the mountainside...
Picture
...and stopped to take a better look....
Picture
And posed for some pictures...
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Then on their way back to Sault Ste Marie for the night, they made a short stop at Havallind Shore.....
Picture
..but it started to rain, so Baron and Naomi stayed in the RV....
Picture

Chippewa Falls

The next morning heading north again, they stopped for breakfast at Chippewa Falls....
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
"It smells delicious."

Scenic Overlook

Heading north through Lake Superior Provincial Park, they stopped at the Scenic Viewpoint overlooking Agawa Bay....
Picture
It's high up a mountainside along the Trans-Canada Highway....
Picture
It's a beautiful scenic spot surrounded by rocks and trees....
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Highway 17 is part of the Trans-Canada Highway, and stretches the 2,180 kilometres through Ontario from the Manitoba border to Quebec.... ​
Picture
Picture
The highway is the only east-west route through northern Ontario, and is just a single lane in each direction, with passing lanes up all the steepest grades, and the section around Lake Superior is one of the most scenic drives in the country....
Picture
Picture
Picture
"It is beautiful up here."
Picture
Picture
Picture
Heading further north, the highway descends to hug the lake again, and they stopped for another short break at Katharine Cove....
