oose River adventure
The mighty Moose River
rolling its way to Artie
tidewater may not qualify as
everyone's river of golden
dreams but it could serve as
a good substitute until the
real thing comes along. The
advantage of the Moose is
that you can do it now. You
can ride down the river, 40
miles from Moose River
Crossing to a wilderness
camp any Tuesday, Thur-
sday, or Sunday throughout
the summer. Your five hour
trip is carried out in 18 ft,
freighter canoe with an
experienced Indian helm-
sman to guide your boat
through the rapids. There is
usually five stops on the
journey to allow passengers
a chance to stretch, fish and
view the crystal clear
scenery at Ieisure.
The wilderness camp is at
the junction of the Moose and
French rivers with James
Bay just over the horizon.
Visitors are accommodated
in heated plywood dor-
mitories. The food is plain
and plentiful and spiced with
nature's greatest condiment
- an outdoors appetite. A day
and a half of fishing, hiking
or sightseeing interspersed
with campfire tales of
trapping and northern living
ends with an hour's trip in a
Rupert House canoe to
Moosonee on James Bay.
The outgoing Polar Bear
Express leaves Moosonee at
6 p.m. and you arrive at
Cochrane to catch the
Toronto bound train at 10.45
that same night.
Your northern adventure
will take about five days and
cost around $130 per person.
$55 for wilderness canoe
tour, $14 return on Polar
Bear plus train fare or other
travel to Cochrane and
return. Routing to Moose
River is out of Toronto
overnight to Cochrane and
north on the Ontario Nor-
thland Railway out of
Cochrane the next morning.
Four hours out of Chochrane
the northbound ONR arrives
• at Moose River Crossing.
