It is very tough to lose a canine friend...and even though it was very hard for me....I know my life was better that I could share it with her....even if it was too short. I hope your Mocha can live for eternity in your heart as my Mocha does for me. Namaste Bob
orion64	06/15/2012 08:13PM   I will be heading in at the end of the month on a trip from Bearskin lake, to Duncan via EP 60. I assume the parking for the entry is the boat access on Bearskin...is that correct? I also would be happy to entertain any campground recommendations for the area. My plan is to do the stairway portage and then....depending on how much I have left.... base camp on Rose or South. It will be just be the two of us....so a large site isn't a priority. I also really have no specific plans...we usually do whatever the area gives us. Also an insight into the area will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance Bob
