Day 46: Fort Frances - Atikokan

km today:145.0
total km: 3452.7

Sunrise from our campground.

This was a necessarily long day. There is nothing in between Fort Frances and Atikokan but a bug infested campground nowhere near any amenities. Not our cup of tea. There were a few highlights amongst the mostly repetetive scenery. We saw our first wolf of the trip. It was quite accidental really. We caught him silently sulking across the highway as he stared us down. It made us wonder how many other members of the animal kingdom we have passed, oblivious of their presence.



What do you do on a boring ride? Have a wonder bread photo shoot of course.

Another highlight (like we said, it was a bit of a boring day) was our improvisation upon realizing we had not packed enough lunch to get us to Atikokan. Somehow we always overlooked this convenience store menu item. A full box of cereal and 2L of milk split between us and we were full and happy.

No beavers here.
