Thanks Dave, Landlocked & Snowball. Those are the types of facilities we are looking for. With all your help we will have to make at least two trips north! Dave do you have a website for the Kakina area? All the best. John P.S. When is Ice-Out for central Ontario

Thank you Gentlemen -- one and all First of all TennesseeGuy I need wheels on my bird when flying around Wisconsin so I'm not planning on teaching her to float. N---WR (Whiskey Romeo) is a lady of the land even though she likes to drink 100 LL at 12 to 15 GPH. Besides I have this other friend that is hoping to go along on this trip so --- maybe next time. Well there you have it gentlemen. Now that I've done a little more studying about wonderful Canada. We a thinking about flying into anyplace in Sunset Country, North of Superior, Algoma Country or James Bay. We figure that we would fly up from Wisconsin and enter Canada thru either Sault Sanit Marie or International Falls. (We don't like to big a spance of water under us. If the engine quits I figure I can put her down in some clearing, fire lane or lake shore but I don't relish the center of Lake Superior) Then head North - probably no more than 2 hours from the boarder which for us would be in those areas I mentioned. Whiskey Romeo isn't equiped with tundra tires so something with around 2000 feet, somewhat smooth surface and hopefully mowed would be alright. We have pass ports, studied customs requirements, etc so that doesn't seem to be a problem. Heck, all the TFR's, etc. we have to be concerned about in the US might make flying in Canada a breese. So with that said -- what do you say. Any great ideas, suggestions or comments about more places in those areas. Thanks again, John P.S. I do appreciate all your answers and comments please keep them coming.

Thanks irishfield for the info. It is our first time thinking about flying in. I fly a fixed gear Cessna 182 Skylane. We should be able to get in and out of the Elmhirst Resort on Rice Lake that has that 2800 ft. strip. I'm heading to work so I don't have mush time to chat but if you have any additional ideas please let me know. Thanks

I'm thinking about flying my land based airplane into Ontario for a fishing trip. Would like to know of any camp or lodge that has an airstrip on their property. Any ideas or suggestions.
