Algonquin Park 2012 - Day Two

On our first day waking up in the park interior we had grand plans to do a big loop through Potter Lake, Brule Lake, McIntosh Lake, and back to Tom Thomson Lake. However, when we worked out that it added up to 20 kilometres, we were more cautious, and decided that we would probably set out, then turn back at an appropriate time - to make sure that we were back in time for supper!

We decided that this would be the far end of out trip
