Islands^ 



. Fifty-seven islands were found within tlie township. Tliese were lettered and 

 numbered from J.K. 20 to J.K. 76. J.K. 20 is in Little Dog Lake, J.K. 21 to 

 51 are in Dog Eiver. J.K. 52 and 53 and J.K. 55 to 71 are in Dog Lake. 

 J.K. 54 is in Florence Lake^ J.K. 72 is in Bolduc Lake, J.K. 73 is in Kawene 

 Lake. J.K. 74 is in Freed Lake. J.K. 75 is in Spike Lake and J.K. 76 is in 

 One Island Lake. The areas of the islands are shown on the plan of the township. 

 Many of them are very small, especially those in the Dog Eiver. Several of the 

 islands in Dog Lake have been formed by raising the level of the lake. 



EOUTES, ETC. 



From Trout Lake, which is one mile south of the south-east angle of the 

 township a tote road runs north-westerly to the south bay of One Island Lake. 

 This road has been used for the last two winters for freighting in provisions and 

 is also passable for waggons but will require considerable more improvement 

 before it is fit for regular summer use. A winter road runs from the south- 

 easterly corner of lot six, concession two, to connect with the road system in 

 Ware Township. From the southerly boundary of the Township to Kaministikwia 

 via this road is about twelve miles. Another road runs north from Kaministikwia. 

 along the Dog Eiver to Little Dog Lake. This road is not improved for the two 

 miles south of the township. In the township this road follows Little Dog Lake 

 to the north end and here it branches and runs to Dog Lake. The portion 

 between Little Dog Lake and Dog Lake can be used as a waggon road but the 

 remaining part is too rough. A winter road branches off this road and runs 

 across concession eight of Ware and enters Fowler in lot sixteen. It then swings 

 east and north and is cut out to Hawk Bay. There is also a winter road running 

 across One Island Lake to Hawk Bay, and on through lot eight in concession 

 I'our, five and six to Dog Lake. A good trail that has once been used as a road 

 runs from the north end of the portage from Little Dog Lake to Dog Lake to 

 ihe dams at the outlet of the lake. Numerous tie roads were found in the 

 i.eighbourhood of the small lakes in lots six, seven and eight in concessions five 

 ind six also in lots five and ^ix in concessions one and two and in lots thirteen 

 end fourteen in concessions one, two and three. 



Cleakings, Improvements, etc. 



There are several sets of lumber camps in the township. These are in lot 

 ux, concession two (J. C. Greer), lot eight, concession five (J. Stirrett & Sons), 

 lot seven, concession six (J. Stirrett & Sons) and in lots fourteen and fifteen, 

 concession one (Jas. Hourigan & Co.). No other improvements than the build- 

 ings were made around any of these camps. Two trappers' cabins were seen on 

 One Island Lake. There is also a full set of camps in lot twenty-three, con- 

 cession five. These were used by the contractors when the storage dams were 

 being built but are now in poor condition. No squatters were found and no 

 other improvements noted. 



Water Powers, etc. 



The fall between Dog Lake and Little Dog Lake is about three hundred 

 feet. Many rapids and falls were found along the course of the river. Detailed
