Moved north and then west to another Provincial Park but still along the Ottawa River. And like all the other campgrounds we have enjoyed all across Canada we were impressed. All are well maintained and it seems each one has some special feature at their core. In this case it is the “chutes”. In the 1800’s this was big time logging country and the river was the way they moved timber down to Lake Huron for transport to the sawmills. In the center of this park is a series of 3 spectacular waterfalls that impeded those log flows so the enterprising lumberjacks constructed gigantic log chutes out of wood as bypasses. Of course the pictures can’t capture the tremendous force of the water pouring over these falls, the roar is deafening. Guess you just after come here and see for yourself:)
