McCrae Lake is in a conservation reserve adjacent to Georgian Bay in Ontario, Canada . It is a popular place to go canoeing,
kayaking, and
camping. The McDonald River starts at the dam at Crooked Bay and flows into McDonald Lake, down a rapids, and
into McCrae
Lake. Together they form
a beautiful, scenic canoe route. Every three months, this web
site will feature a new calendar
showcasing
scenes from the McDonald River or McCrae Lake.

Please read about the bridge
over the rapids and about how snowmobiles
are ruining Ontario.Our
nicest wilderness places are
being ruined by the callous policies of
the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.They actually gave
your tax dollars away
to a snowmobile club to help finance wrecking
this place. The MNR avoided informing any parties interested
in preserving this
area about the snowmobile trail. Never did they post
a sign stating that an application had been made for a permit to build
a road
and bridge in the area. Yet the MNR maintained three signs during that time at
the parking lot with other information regarding
the canoe route because
that is the only way they can inform the public which camps there.
After
it became known, they allowed the construction to proceed despite
overwhelming public objection. Next, the snowmobile
club dynamited the
waterfall without a permit doing irreparable damage.
Here are some faqs about what happened.
