A Grassroots Effort To Map The Historic Canoe Routes Of Wabakimi Provincial Park

CBC News Thunder Bay ran an article about the grassroots effort led by "Uncle" Phil Cotton to map the historical canoe routes in Wabakimi Provincial Park located in Northern Ontario. Read about the volunteer's work over the years and how it has lead to some wonderfully detailed maps.

“Most of the people come because they really believe that the canoe routes themselves are of value to our society”
— Phil Cotton
