Forrest Lodge on Caribou Lake is the Gateway to the Wabakimi (TM)Provincial Park -- one of the World's largest Boreal Forest reserves and wilderness canoeing areas. (A Boreal Forest is a broad belt of coniferous forest that stretches between the mostly treeless arctic/subarctic region to the north and the mixed hardwood and coniferous transition forest of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Forest region to the south.)

The park is almost 2.3 million acres in size and the 2nd largest park in the Ontario Parks System. Website:www.wabakimi.on.ca/wabakimi/index.htm

Armstrong is 9 miles south on Caribou Lake Road. It's a small town but has the staples you may need, food, fuel, phones, laundromat, health clinic, police station, 2 restaurants and a post office.

 It also has a unmanned 4000 FT airstrip in case you want to fly in with your private plane. We'll be there to greet you and get you started on your fishing vacation at Forrest Lodge.
