Arrival at Devil Lake

This was a novice trip (including clothes packed in plastic garbage bags!) involving a short paddle across Devil Lake, on the Churchill River just north of Missinipe, to Mosquito Falls.

There were nine humans and one dog. In alphabetical order we were Chris, Dana, Elaine, Gilbert, Joan, Joyce, Max, Peter, Sandy and Warren.

Warren towed Mike's trailer with three canoes. On arrival at the launching point on Devil Lake, just north of Otter Rapids, everything was unloaded.

As you can see, for July the weather was not very hot.

Max and Joyce traveled in their Caprice. Max was soon wearing his PFD (Personal Floatation Device). Joan kept her top half warm.
