CANOEING THROUGH THE QUEBEC
COUNTRY
Continued from Page Eight

wound around among the hills with
many beautiful points for camping
places. We scanned these points
for shacks but did not see any until
we were quite a distance down the
lake. We landed and looked over
the ground but found it was only a
deserted lumber caAp.
We padded down the lake still
further and finding a very fine beach
we landed and cooked lunch. We did
some fishing from the shore but
caught nothing although it appeared
Ike an ideal place for fish.
At about four o'clock in the p. m.
we were approaching the outlet of the
lake and observing "a lumber camp on
the right shore we padded that way.
As we drew nearer we observed four
fellows sitting near one of the build
ings so we Immediately landed, and
asked what river we were on. We
found it to be the Milieu River which
at that point was twenty miles east
of the Mattawin and flowed into it
at least twenty miles south OF
Cypress Creek where we had intend
ed to, leave the Mattawin and cross
over to the Devil River.
One of the fellows, an Indian, and
a fire warden, showed us his map of
the district which we were glad to
see, since this was the first time that
any OF us had been particularly in
terested in the Milieu River We did
not know just where it flowed, but the
map gave us the desired information.
We were informed that there were
only four or five rapids before we
reached the Mattawin and that st.
Michel des Saints was eight or ten
miles up the Mattawin from the point
where the Mileu joins it.
Armed with this information we felt
somewhat relieved and had an inter
esting talk with the fire fighters sew
eral of whom had joined us. We
learned that they were busily engag-
ed fighting a fire a few miles back
from the river and not near enough
10 cause us any trouble. One of the
fire fighters induced Morlidge to have
a pipe full of his mild Shag which
Morlidge did and likewise almost
st1angled himself IS well as the rest
# The bunch.
We left camp and proceeded down
the river few miles 10 make our
own camp. On the way we saw a
deer feeding on the shore which we
photographed.
We located good looking spot free
from saad flies among the second
growth at the head of a rapid After
supper | caught a good led fish FOR
ctr breakfast.
From this point down the river
there was large quantities of logs
which were jammed at all the rapids
making numerous pOrtages necessary
The few portages specified by the
Indian were soon reached with more
portages ahead. We made up our
minds that when an Indian counts
he always takes at least two for one
There was considerable second
growth, soft and hard wood all the
way from Long Lake making the
county appear more natural to us
The scenery was very fine in spots
but the portages were so numerous
that we did not appreciate the beau
