Hi Happy Campers, welcome to 2019! Soon the camp will be alive with campers from all over North America. A few updates as you start your travels to the north.
Sadly, Agawa gifts at Pancake Bay has closed their doors. That was always a great spot to stop for fuel, ice cream, gifts or smoked fish. Guess we will have to look for another spot, any ideas?
Road construction is along highway 17 scattered at bridges as in the past, there were 3 stoppings as of June 5. Additionally, Highway 2 east of Manistique, Michigan has some construction issues.
Travel along the gravel from Manitouwadge or highway 11 is rough. While we had a lot of snow, the roads are washed out in spots so take it easy and you will be fine. The logging crews are hauling on Philip Creek as well as west of Happy Camp close to Ramsey Lake.
We got up late Tuesday and the temps were at freezing. While winter was kind to the cabins this year, the cold is still raising havoc with our water issues and we are working hard to get that all up and running! Lake levels are starting to recede, the dock should be put in next week. While it was cold early this week, today is windy and warm, mid to upper 80’s now.
We did get a chance to do some fishing, fish are scattered, some lakes are better than others. With the heat will come the Mayfly and other bug explosions. Speaking of bugs, the Black flies and Mosquitos are awesome already!
Many Moose and Bear sightings in the area already, we have a couple of Sows with 2 cubs and a handful of Moose. Some Loons have made it back.
We look forward to seeing all of you either for the first or 8th time, it is always a pleasure and have room for a few more Happy Campers, so if you are looking for an awesome adventure in the Ontario wilderness, give us a call or shoot us an email today to save your spot and Come and Catch the Good Life with Us at Happy Camp Ontario! Take care everyone.
