| On July 19 I paddled 14.2 kilometers and portaged 3.8 kilometers from George Lake to Muriel Lake in the La Cloche Mountains of Killarney (Ontario) Provincial Park. |

My canoe weighed about 15 kilos (33 lb) and my pack was about 18 kilos (40 lb). I carried an extra 2 kilo sketching pack (4.5 lb). |
I arrived at the George Lake ranger station in the late morning. I was on George Lake fully packed by noon. |

The weather mostly comes from Lake Huron in the summer on the west wind and pops over the mountains without much warning.

I was alone and planned to sketch, paddle, and portage the back country for five days.

Mouse over the photograph of a portage bridge between O.S.A. Lake and Muriel Lake on the left to zoom in. |
By moon rise I had set a camp and taken a meal on the north shore of Muriel Lake.
During the night, in the early morning, an elk walked through my campsite. |
