ordinarily speaking, tliere is no need of exertioni 

 wliicli a child of five summers could not safely putt

WHAT SECTIONS TO VISIT. 



If you go in by way of the Saranacs, do not 

 camp down in that section as some do, but pass 

 over Indian Carry, through the Spectacle Lakes and 

 Eamshorn Creek (called by some Stony Creek), 

 into the Eacquette Eiver. Then turn up or down 

 as you please. If you desire to see some of the 

 finest scenery imaginable, pass up the Eacquette to 

 Long Lake, and, when some two miles up the lake, 

 turn your face toward the north, and you will be- 

 hold what is worth the entire journey to see. 

 Then go on, and do not camp until you do so on the 

 southern or western shore of Eacquette Lake. Here 

 you will find good sporting and scenery unsur- 

 passed. Build here your central camp, and, as soon 

 as you are established, take your boat and go over 

 to the " AVood's Place," and from the knoll on 

 which the house stands you will gaze upon one of 

 the finest water views in the world. Then visit 

 Terrace Lodge, on an island to the front and left of 

 you, and, climbing up the ledge, you will either find 

 the writer there to welcome you, or see vdiere he 

 and one better than he have passed n
