Review # 2 was written on 2021-02-23 00:00:00 Michael Welty Super-inspiring journey of the McGuffin's journey from the St Lawrence to the Arctic Ocean. For any dreamer who's rolled out the maps and plotted a similar journey, this book provides some good tips, such as the shortcut up the Ottawa River with a quick portage over to Georgian Bay (skipping Lake Ontario, Erie, much of Huron and of course Niagara Falls!), the unexpected beauty of the (now-dammed) Winnipeg River, and the "bifurcation lake" of Wollasotn Lake - a lake with an outlet flowing in two directions, allowing for a portage-free crossing into the Arctic watershed! This was the McGuffins' first book, and some of the annoying hectoring and naivete of people in their early 20s who think they know more than they do comes through in the writing, but it is greatly outweighed by their passion for nature and their home country. |
