Back to Quetico we go...

Taken from a campsite facing northwesterly.

Joy is a great teacher, but so is dispair. Wonder is a great teacher, but so is confusion. Hope is a great teacher, but so is disillusionment. And life is a great teacher, but so is death. To deny yourself any of those in any aspect is not experiencing life totally.

One of you is “warm”... you’re sort of in the neighborhood. (And no, it’s not Mocha. That would have been WAY too easy. Lol)

A clue:

Roses are red,
Water is wet.
If you guess the right lake,
The prize you will get.

Ok... another clue. This beautiful site was right around the corner from the campsite from which the previous photo was taken. The falls serenaded us the entire time we were there.

The lakes on either side of this one have been mentioned. Consider the water flow, Stumpy.

There's this little landmark a bit downstream from my original photo. Chatterton Falls... definitely worth the price of admission to Quetico Park.
