"Obatanga Provincial Park
We had the day off today waiting for the 'new crew members' to arrive...and maybe to rest a little too!
Northwestern Ontario has some of the nicest Provincial Parks we have ever visited. Sioux Narrows and Caliper Lake on Hwy 71 are both remote parks with lots of fishing (if you are into that) and hiking opportunities. Quetico, with its huge wilderness area, is ideal for the launching of outback canoe trips. Neys and Rainbow Falls make it easy to connect to the 56 km hiking trail, The Casque Isles Trail, along the shores of Lake Superior from Terrace Bay to Rossport. White Lake is perfect for canoeing and Obatanga, with its 32 lakes, is the ideal setting to do wilderness canoe trips. All of these parks have amazing campgrounds that are 'anything but busy'. And we have had the pleasure to camp in each one with the exception of Quetico! Another area that is a 'must visit' for us at a future date! The one negative has been the boil water order at Sioux Narrows, White Lake and again at Obatanga. This is something that the Provincial Government needs to address quickly and not as the Notices say 'sometime in the future filters will be installed to rectify the problem'. Knowing the speed with which things are done by the government this could be indefinately!!!"
