Pukaskwa Coastal Trail: Day 5


The boys still admiring the White River from the suspension bridge. 


Are we there yet?  Almost. The section from Hatties Cove to the suspension bridge is heavily travelled and easier to follow and hike. We planned to back at the truck in good time and to have lunch at A&W in White River. Boy, a meal that isn’t boiled in a bag will be fine with me! Even if it’s not corn fed beef!

The final out day was relatively uneventful. I ignored a minor toe blister that then got much worse. Just cause I knew we were existing in a couple hours, I still should if properly attended to it immediately. 

We met lots of families and older couples in this section. It was nice to see so many folks heading out to the suspension bridge and back for a day hike. Still a considerable undertaking for sure. 

The showers in the campground were amazing. Best shower ever. After a short 4 or 5 hours on the trail we were out. A good cleaning and a speedy checkout had us in White River for those grass fed burgers. Thanks for an amazing week KD and PR!
