White Lake Provincial Park


Sept. 9
This was a nice little provincial park half way between Sault Ste Marie and Thunder Bay

On the way we stopped at Young's General Store for an Ice Cream. Jan shared hers with the resident Moose 


Off season, tough times? Whatever the reason this provincial park was a self check in that went like this.
  1. Read instructions on board
  2. Look for registration form
  3. Dive 15 minutes to camping area
  4. Spend 15 minutes locating the "perfect" site
  5. Fill out the forms ( why is there no spot for campsite number)
  6. Look for exact change
  7. Seal envelope and drive 15 minutes back to camp office.
  8. Deposit envelope and drive 15 minutes back to site.
  9. Set up.
  10. Realize we should have filled in forms at registration area (remember no spot for campsite number?) . Oh well wast's 30 minutes of driving time and $10.00 worth of gas anyway?
Park was quiet, clean with roomy sites. Short walk to a long sandy beach. Too bad swimming season is over. Bear warning signs posted but no bear sighted. Wash rooms had posters showing how to identify mountain lion scat (poop as it's more commonly known) Why??? mmmm.

Would stay at this park again.
