Not just recreational....

Morning Mist rises off Black Island on the way to he nets.

Deer Island, Lake Winnipeg October 2009.




Harvey Bushie and his crew of Ojibwe Fishers work the
wintry waters of Lake Winnipeg last fall.



At the nets, Deer Island

Damn the weather....


The forecast said wet all week, and then showers again Saturday night.
Sunday though, turned into a paddler's dream as a pair of groups headed out and around Elk Island, one clockwise, the other counter, to a rendezvous for lunch half way.

Eagles Soared, (Golden and Bald), deer roamed, Ravens gathered
and bears explored our beach before we landed.

Footprints in the sand (big and small)

The horizon...., it just took the morning off
 Sangeeta searches for a horizon off Victoria Beach near Elk Island


Headed home.
