Heading South


Leaving the farm and fishing communities around Lac St Jean behind today, we turned south and drove through the "Reserve faunique des Laurentides" - miles and miles of forests, rivers and hills - beautiful, but not too much change in scenery. The fence you see at the bottom of this picture is a barrier to prevent wildlife (moose, specifically) from running on to the road. The fence runs along the entire 60-70 miles of road, with signs (from what we could gather in French) giving the public a phone number to call if any moose are spotted on the road.


The row boats in the above picture are provided by the provincial park for public use - there are no rental fees or registration desks; the boats just sit there for people to borrow at will
