Egan Chutes

I spent some time in Bancroft and Egan Chutes this past weekend and the fall colours were beautiful. Egan Chutes is a very nice waterfall and I will definitely be visiting there again. It was a bit of a difficult place to find as there is no real sign directing you to Egan Chutes Provincial Park. But we found it and after hiking along the side of the river for a bit we came to the waterfall.

Fall Colours: Algonquin Park

I spent the day in Algonquin last week Friday, I wasn't expecting the fall colours to be all that great yet but when I got there the Western half of highway 60 was pretty well 100% changed! But most of the highway was under construction and made it difficult to just stop to take some photos. Here are a couple I could manage though.
Tea lake

Opeongo Road

Look out trail - first light

Across the road from Ragged Falls PP

Costello Lake

Lake of Two Rivers
 As you can see I had some fun with Panoramic Photos as well.
I also hiked into wolf howl pond via arowhon road, didn't find a whole lot there but I did spend some time stalking this Wood Duck, and had a Pine Marten run in front of me on the way out. The weather was perfect and it was a pretty great day to be out.
