  • Pilated woodpeckers, Killbear - Killbear Point Provincial Park
    Pilated woodpeckers,

    I've been to camping many times before, but this was the time when I saw the most wildlife, including a white tailed deer, 2 pilated woodpeckers, a patridge, and lots of chipmunks.

    Tip: Get out early in the morning before the sunrise for the best viewing opportunities. Don't necessarily have to go on a hiking trail. Just look carefully, be quiet and you can spot them. I found most of the wildlife within steps from our campsite.

    What a beautiful morning, the lake is calm like a mirror!

    Tip: You can't see the sunrise from the horizon on this side of Geogian Bay, so it's ok to head out after the sun rises, but you'll see the sun comes up in between the trees and the calmness of the lake.

    The lone pine tree on the rocky shore makes a perfect picture! There are other similar trees that were blown out of shape like this one, but this is the best one to be photographed.

  • Directions: The tree is located on the south shore just outside of the Beaver Dams Campground.

    Sunset at Killbear

    Send Photo to a Friend
    We watched the sunsets for two nights in a row on the rocks. No sunsets are the same. We were quite surprised of the beautiful sunset on one night, as we thought that there wasn't going to be a show because of the clouds. It was actually the clouds that brought out the colours!

    The best place to watch the sunset is on the rocks outside of Beaver Dams Campground.

    Lookout Trail - Killbear

    Panoramic view of Georgian Bay from the lookout point of the Lookout Trail, after hiking for about half an hour. It has a great view of the Bay as the lookout is on the top of the hill, and it is also a great spot for lunch. But don't forget to take your garbage with you so that others can enjoy the park.

    The trail is a 3.5km loop with moderate slopes.

    The rocks along the shore of this side of the park is quite distinct. Looks like each piece of rock has many layers, maybe it's shaped by the waves.

    This is a fairely easy hiking trail, 1 km long.

    The same rocky shoreline in a quiet afternoon. Can't see the reflection any more as the lake became rougher.

    You'll see the smooth pink granite that covers a large area along the trail.

    It's an easy walking trail, 1.5km long.

    A look at the sunset from another spot on the rocks. Notice the dramatic change of colours from the previous photo. The colours were changing constantly!

    Aaah, finally the lighthouse :-))
    As maybe many of you know, I have something with lighthouses. And I even built a page about it. It used to be here on VT, but I've moved it to my own website. Here is the address if you are interested in taking a look at it :
    http://www.geocities.com/sim1themes1/lighthouses.html

    This lighthouse is from 1904 and it was used to guide lake freighters and passenger ships into Parry Sound.
