Lake Nipissing November Sky

Lately the weather has been warm and the air calm.

Afternoons have been long and languid.

Sometimes the skies over Lake Nipissing have been dramatic.

Duchesnay

A popular spot to visit in our part of the world is where Duchesnay Creek cascades down the rocky escarpment on the North side of Lake Nipissing.

Several ledges form pretty waterfalls and rapids in the almost 1 km trip from the top to the bottom.

This photograph was made near the end of the journey that the creek takes on its way to Nipissing.

Occasionally Lake Nipissing is calm and tranquil.

One day last week, it was.

Summer Extension

Generally in this part of the world, the door to Summer is considered to close on Labour Day Weekend.

Occasionally Mother Nature forgets and leaves it wide open for another week or so.

When that happens, gloriously calm and luxurious afternoons occur.

The illusion that this will continue forever is strong, despite the certain knowledge that it can’t come true.

Lake Nipissing shows itself at its best during these special times.

Westward Ho!

The mouth of the Lavase River at Lake Nipissing.

From this point the Voyageurs of the early Canada fur trade crossed Lake Nipissing and began the trip down the French River to Lake Huron.

The eventual destination was Western Canada where the goods they were carrying were exchanged for furs.

Another two or three weeks may see the Lake ice-free.
