Thought I'd share some pictures. I took these during October 2007 in western Ontario, when I was doing some surveying work, cleaning the lines and taking soil samples for a family friend that does some gold prospecting. I was pretty busy working, so I didnt get that many chances to break out the camera, which was kept in a water proof bag, so it was really slow to take out. These pictures were taken over the course of a week.
Normally we'd set up a camp and stay out in the bush, but we werent out there long enough, and it was just us two, so instead we just stayed at his cabin on one of the islands.
We'd get up before dawn, and be on the water by first light. The first landing was approximately 30 miles away by boat. From there there was an hour walk to an inland lake. Then we'd take a small boat that's stashed there (with the outboard motor that we carried in) and it'd be another 40 minutes going through the smaller lakes to the particular claim line we were working on.
So without further ado, the pictures...
A shot on the lake during the sunrise
Some shot's of the in land lakes from the small boat...
the only in focus shot of me
the landing at the claim line was fairly marshy
