Tourism Opportunities
Lovely, somewhat desolate terrain. Not a lot of amenities. However, in mid-route in Whiteshell Provincial Park. It is a short walk south of the road. This 2,700 square km park is a four-season park where nature sets the stage for an outdoor experience as civilized, or as wild as you choose; where a meteorite lake welcomes swimmers and scuba divers; and where children's days are easily filled at one of nature's great playgrounds
