20 July 2014 Kakebeka Falls (near Thunder Bay)
Perhaps the likelihood that you only get to go over once. Or
that damage to your canoe may go beyond scratches.
Since the builder went to so much trouble to put this
together I decided to take about 500 pictures of the results. I am sparing you
the majority of them because they are frankly not all that good. I know you knew.

| River's been running through here for a while |
We were blessed with another snow free day in the 70’s so we
spent quite a while watching and listening. If you are tolerant of shaky
cams
click here and you’ll get to see and hear the falls. You might want to chew
on a Tums first. Sit on something solid.
This is the ultimate infinity pool:
 |
| Looks pretty innocuous |
 |
| Maybe we should back paddle a bit |
Not surprisingly the falls are a short walk from the Provincial Park by the same name. This is one of
the nicest Provincial Parks in Ontario.
Sites are very large and well screened while the roads are wide and maneuvering
into place is easy.
Hiking seeks to be inevitable for us. Little Falls Trail was
one of the three we went on this day. Steep with inclines on broken screed
(shale). Cool little waterfall feature.
 |
| Like walking down ball bearings |
 |
| Trail bottoms out at the river |
 |
| Little Falls |
 |
| Big Falls from the Little Falls Trail |
With these temps in the mid 70’s we worked up a healthy hike
sweat so we went to Thunder Bay to cool off. I will explain next entry.

| Gratuitous butterfly shot. No it didn't take 12 shots to get this one. OK it did. |
