A POSTCARD FROM ALGONQUIN PARK-1960S

The good thing about keeping postcards is the time frame of bygone times.

We camped as a family the late 1950s to the early 1970s most summers at Rock Lake. The guys in the family may take fishing weekend trips up Lake Opeongo.

This is a view of the Galesairy Lake and Madawaska River at Whitney- just outside the east end of Algonquin.

Costello Creek in Algonquin.

What a rustic highway in the 1960s. This is Lake of Two Rivers on Highway 60 in Algonquin Park.
Many people today go for a weekend in the fall to see the colours of this part of central Ontario. It is the park that connects the south to the north. The trees are from a boreal forest so lots of green coniferous trees amongst the changing deciduous trees. If one does not love camping then there are lodges in the Park and motels/hotels outside the park to stay when making day trips.
