MEECH LAKE - ON THE LIST


 Always looking for our next adventure, I found this picture taken by Robert Wilson and added it to the summer list of to do's. There is this great HIKE that will bring us right to where this picture was taken. It's Meech Lake and if it sounds familiar to you it's because in 1987 Prime Minister Brian Mulroney attempted to win Quebec's consent to the revised Canadian Constitution following the Quebec government's rejection of it in 1981 This was called the Meech Lake Accord.


These ruins are situated about a two kilometer hike east from the south shore of the lake. They are remnants of a small industrial complex built in the early 1900's. The complex is now in ruins and the area has been reclaimed by forest and Meech creek flows right through the middle of it all.

Looks like a gorgeous winter location for a walk too!
