Lake Temiskaming
The Lake Temagami/Ottawa River water route is one of the MAJOR historical water bodies in Canada. It opened up the central and western regions of the continent. As early at 1615, Jesuits were guided by First Nations people into the great beyond of the boreal forests. Near the cabin where we stayed was an old mission. It was founded by the Jesuits in the later 1800s to serve the forest workers, pioneers. fur traders and People of the First Nations in the area.
