Lake Superior Provincial Park, Ontario - Trapper's Trail

When we got here there were two rangers from Parks Canada hacking at a beaver dam with axes. I got curious and asked them why. They informed me that they normally leave them alone, but this particular dam had caused some flooding on a trail back there. It was only after 10 minutes of heading down a trail in a different direction, as it got slushier and slushier, that I realized that this trail and that trail were one and the same. (It follows the shore of Rustle Lake.) Oooops.

This dam thing is broken


A dam shame

This is about how the trail looked when we decided, hmm, maybe we'd better turn back.
