This year, March went out like a lamb, with nice weather and no new snowstorms. April is a month of transition with ice leaving Georgian Bay and the snow melting rapidly.
The featured picture for this post was taken at the far west end of Beach Area 5. There was so much water that cutting through the trees was the only way to leave the park without getting your feet wet.
