This Area may soon Disappear, if not for Your Help!


If this place looks familiar … Read on
A proposed HydroElectric development will drastically change High Falls on the Grassy River. The scenic beauty of these rapids and waterfall, only 23 km from downtown Timmins, will be lost forever as the river flow is forced into a large pipe to feed the turbine and generator. The falls, as we now know it, will cease to exist. The preliminary work has already started as an environmental screening process is now happening. Public input will be sought probably in early Spring 2008 or 2009 or 2010 or 2011 or 2012 - Who knows ?

High Falls Snowshoe Trip


A couple of weekends ago, my wife and a good friend of mine snowshoed up to high falls on a beautiful sunny day
We weren't able to get right up close but certainly close enough to get some outstanding views and a couple of nice shots

Here's one of them

Regards
Mark
