Along the Madawaska River near Burnstown
After a few days Linda Sorensen and I (Joyce Burkholder) take a look at what we have accomplished. A wonderful sharing of our different approaches to painting.
Want to visit a new part of the Ottawa River watershed? Well, then flip through our magazine, "Watershed: The voice of the Ottawa River!" Created as part of our... 2020 Gala: Deconstructed, the magazine is a unique look at our work and the partners that make it possible. To provide you with the inside scoop, we asked some active members of our community to tell us about their 10 Hidden Gems in and around the waterways of our beautiful region. Check out what Patrick Nadeau, our own Executive Director, had to say about Papineau-Labelle Wildlife Reserve (#10 on map) and get ready for your next road trip! "A lifetime would not be enough to experience fishing on all the lakes of the southernmost wildlife reserve in Québec. Papineau-Labelle hosts a wealth of activities and accommodations, thanks to SÉPAQ's excellent management. Having a lake all to yourself (or nearly) is not uncommon!" https://www.ottawariverkeeper.ca//Watershed-_Final-Proof-s
Photos of the Bonnechere River Watershed Project chair, Kathryn Lindsay, and Ole Hendrickson, President of the Ottawa River Institute, sediment sampling and canoeing with the ORK Youth Water Leaders are featured in the article "Future Bearing" (p.10-11).
Rainy paddle on the Little Mississippi River this morning. A little wet, but quite beautiful and peaceful.
Oiseau Rock is a breathtaking natural feature and sacred First Nations landmark. One way to get there is to launch from Sheenboro. Cross the bridge in Chapeau, then go west on Chemin de Chapeau Sheenboro. This turns into Sheen Rd, then chemin Carpo. At the end of the lane is a small public launch site. Paddle across to the lighthouse, then continue west towards the rock. There is a beach where the trail begins, which leads to the top. Paddle around the point to see the rock from the water.
Here is an update regarding Burnstown Beach and Council’s discussions from last night’s Council meeting.
