May 3rd. Victoria Mtn

Victoria Mountain is a fair drive from Elliot Lake, about 6okm one way, but worth the effort. A great trail and million dollar view. Welcome Mark, joining us from Espanola, along with 14 others. We visited the falls on the Serpent R and were disappointed to find them down to a trickle. A harbinger of the dry season that is approaching. Thx "Bearded" John for the pics.
