"Where the heck is Noganosh?" you may ask, well join Vicky and Laurie to find out. Apparently the access is north of Parry Sound via Kawigamog Lake and Smokey Lake. Brave hearts may continue the option of going into Lost Lake, but V wants dibs on your Beamer if you don’t make it back.

NEW TRIP! Come join Elizabeth and her boy-toy John for an easy afternoon paddle down the Grand River from Cambridge to Paris (well, almost). High water levels promise some thrills, chills and potential spills. Put-in point is at Shep Subdivision, approximately 3 km south of Cambridge on Highway 24.
Cross over bridge and parking/put-in area is on the right. Meet at 12:00 pm. We need one volunteer to drive down with John to the car shuttle return point near Paris.

Beausoleil Island, Parks Canada

Mary and Andrew try to out do Vicki and Laurie in the leisure category.

Start in Honey Harbour and paddle for about an hour to the Island avoiding the sleek motorcraft trying to swamp your canoe. Mary says "Don’t come if you don’t like wearing a PFD. We’ll be staying on the east side of the island doing LOTS OF HIKING. Hot showers, flush ‘heads’ and interpretive centre on the site. Not far for the boys to paddle back to town if you run out of Happy Hour Comestibles."
