Manitoba - Day 19

We left our cabin in Paint Lake with an idea of where we wanted to go but nothing booked and nothing firmly decided. All we knew for sure was Winnipeg is about 800 kms away so we're not getting that far. Those days of marathon drives are long gone for this road trip guy. It was still going to be about a 550 km day so we'd both have to drive.


As far as scenery goes it was a little different. We backtracked for over 100 kms but some slightly different things presented themselves. There are numerous lakes in northern Manitoba but this one had some pretty big rapids - big enough to provide a name, the Sasagiu Rapids.


Crumbling masses of possibly sandstone rock would have formed canyons if they'd been about ten times higher. For now it was just something a little different to watch as our journey progressed.


I don't know why people do this. Wonder what colour their neck is? A lovely tin wolf cutout perched atop the "canyon" walls riddled with bullet holes. Oh well, to each his own.


Another of the seemingly endless number of lakes - Devil's Lake here.


We're not sure what we're up to tomorrow. We're not due back in Winnipeg until Monday and this motel we found in Moosehorn seems so out of place here. We were expecting a rundown, ancient relic from the sixties but landed at this one that would be more appropriate in the city.
