My Week In Pictures!

Another week has come and gone, and UKN and I "flogged the bush" all week. Flew canoers, hauled lumber, got a quick float repair, flew more canoers, flew low, etc., etc.! This is how it was, in random and unchronological order!


Arrive at Silver Falls and be "drydocked" for a float repair. Posted by Picasa

A CanCar "Tree Farmer" skidder, the perfect machine for pulling large aircraft from the water. Posted by Picasa


Send Remy into the float to find the leak. Posted by Picasa


"Found the leak"! Posted by Picasa


After a couple of hours, the boys put her back in the water, after replacing some rivets and resealing the float, and I was northbound! Posted by Picasa


Lumber-hauling was on the "agenda" this week. Posted by Picasa

Load some canoer's packs, ............ Posted by Picasa


.......then load the canoers, 6 young Americans going on a month-long canoe excursion. Wow! The dental industry in the U.S. is very "robust" judging by the "gleam" from these 6 "10,000 watt, million dollar smiles". Outstanding.  Posted by Picasa


Tie on "another" canoe.............. Posted by Picasa


.........and another........... Posted by Picasa


Ready! Posted by Picasa


Drop canoers at Artery Lake, on the Bloodvein River......... Posted by Picasa

Disprove the "skeptics" that state trees can't grow from "solid rock". Canadian "Shield Country", fantastic geography! Sparkling waters, loaded with fish! Posted by Picasa


At the end of every day, fly low back to Base over "Unforgiving Lake Winnipeg", sometimes seeing UKN's "shadow". Notice the "turbidity" of Lake Winnipeg water at this time of year. A "Great Inland Sea"! Posted by Picasa


Hey! Calder's Dock! Just about home! Looking forward to another evening of "whisky and stories" with "the boys"! How was your week? Till next time,.........."Adios"! Posted by Picasa
