Algoma's Ranger Lake Loop
zoomHe're a short video clip of one of my all-time favourite canoe routes - the Ranger Lake Loop. It's written up in my book A Paddler's Guide to Ontario's Lost Canoe Routes, is approx. 7 days in length, starts at either Ranger or Gong Lake, goes up the Wet Aubinadong River to Megisan Lake and then down river on the Nushatogaini River. It was the first place I paddled a canoe at the age of twelve and what started my life as a paddler. In the 1930s and 1940s it was one of the most popular canoe routes in the province of Ontario - now, no one seems to paddle it. The reason - half is up river. Check out the video and you'll see why it's a tough go. David Hadfield, singer and songwriter http://www.hadfield.ca/ wrote the song to go with the short clip - it will definitely make you laugh.
