LIKE TO HUNT?
Hunting in this area of Northeastern Ontario is a way of life.
This is rugged landscape near thousands of acres of Crown Land.
It is complete with mixed hardwood, streams, swamps and mountainous areas.
Hunters know, that this combination of landscape is bound to have moose, bears, and small game such as rabbits and partridge lurking in this lush and rugged forestry!
You can just imagine being in a tree stand breathing in the cool crisp air, as the Fall Season colours the trees for as far as you can see.
Black Bears are Attracted to Northern Ontario's Diverse Landscape and It is no wonder that Ontario has one of the largest black bear populations in North America!
Black Bears enjoy the abundance of blueberries, raspberries and other assorted fruits and nuts found in the Northern Ontario regions that gets them through the winter.
The fresh water creeks and ponds offer them plenty to drink and a great place to cool down, and the dense forest provides tall trees to hide their cubs from danger.
The property is in WMU 28
LIKE TO FISH?
There are over forty fresh water lakes surrounding the area starting with the huge LARDER LAKE!
If you enjoy fishing, this is definitely the area to be in!
You will love winter in this area, especially when ice fishing season starts.
When ice fishing season opens, the Pickerel, Pike and Lake Trout are anxiously waiting for the anglers.
They have not seen bait for awhile, and are quickly tempted!
Fish the big LARDER LAKE as some locals refer to it as "An Anglers Paradise".
