Surrounded by Nature's Beauty Nestled among the hills of the Precambrian Shield, the Elliot Lake and the North Shore area welcome you with it's natural, unparalleled beauty. With over 4,000 crystal-clear lakes and rivers, unspoiled stands of forests, sandy beaches, stunning landscapses and beautiful sunsets, this area truly is a "Jewel in the Wilderness". The environment is clean and unspoiled with fresh air and good-quality water. The forests are mix of deciduous and coniferous trees and include pine, birch,hemlock, maple, spruce, cedar and fir. Wildlife species of the region include white-tailed deer, black bear, ruffled grouse,moose, and numerous species of waterfoul. Throughout the North Channel, sightings of moose, deer, and black bear are common, with smaller animals, such as mink, fox, otter, weasel, beaver, raccoon and porcupine making regualr shoreline appearances. Land and water birds are everywhere. One of the best ways to take advantage of the spectacular surroundings of the area is through a walk on one of the many hiking trails. And in the fall when the trees change colour it is truly Golden Spendour! |
I hope you enjoy some of the places that I have found in my exploring. Please keep in mind that pictures cannot do this area justice - you really must see it to believe it! Yolanda Fenerty |
