Day #44: Parry Sound


Morning in Hopewell Bay

The eastern part of Georgian Bay is known as the Cottage District.  It's appropriate as almost every island has a cottage.


A Very Tight Canoe Pass

We stuck to the Small Craft route again today.  The calm weather made traversing even the tightest areas a lot easier.


Parry Sound's Walking Trail

Our stopping point tonight was named for William Edward Parry, an 18th century Arctic explorer.  Hockey great Bobby Orr is the town's most famous son.


Hopewell Bay to Parry Sound

A nice quiet 31 miles today to the marina in Parry Sound.  It's a bit of a culture shock as this is the biggest town we've been in since leaving Michigan.  Nellie's total is now 1698 miles.  DBH
