What a lovely day it is. The weather has warmed up and we can stop and stretch without getting cold. We don’t get alarmed when we see signs like this along the trail. The trails are well groomed but not marked like they are in Michigan. We traveled 230 miles today and had a wonderful day.

A very cold morning as we leave Smooth Rock Falls to make a loop around Abitibi Canyon. The weather had warmed up to -2 degrees by 10:30 A.M. when we arrived at the Base Camp which consisted of a gas pump (which was $2.40 a liter) and a construction trailer which we gladly entered and warmed up with a cup of hot chocolate.
