Today we are heading out to Curtain and Rebecca Falls. We head up through Bottle and make our way to Curtain Falls. Are those rapids ahead? Of course, but not real big and as we contemplate how we’re going to get across, two men that put in the same time we did show up. A plan has been decided upon between the four of us and we carefully navigate going through the rapids and we beach our canoe next to the portage. The two gentlemen behind us will be continuing on past us – I envy their energy and determination. I’m just too lazy to break camp every day and move from site to site.

We climb the portage and make it to the falls. What a wonderful view. As a wannabe photographer, I know that noon is not the best time for waterfall pictures, but I do the best I can. In some ways, we wish we could have been here earlier in the day to see the sun come up over the falls, but it is what it is. We stay a bit, have lunch and take pictures. We work our way back down and head for Rebecca Falls. We remember that John said to head for the middle of the island and secure the canoe. Overall, I think Rebecca is prettier than Curtain. It was a bit of a challenge to take pictures on the flat side of Rebecca because of the steep slope, but the other side has more character and structure. In either case, I’m glad we made it. As we leave Rebecca, the wind has picked up and continues all the way back to camp.
