  • 2020 Summer of Adventure! LAKE HURON NORTH CHANNEL Massey to Espanola
    2020 Summer of Adventure! LAKE HURON NORTH CHANNEL Massey to Espanola 2020 Summer of Adventure! LAKE HURON NORTH CHANNEL-Massey to Espanola Celebrate 25years of trail-building and work to protect and connect our Great Lakes and St. Lawrence waterfront with the 2020 Summer of Adventure! This week we head north with a wonderful ride from Massey to Espanola. Never mind the Big Smoke. Welcome to big northern hospitality. Ride through the gentle foothills of the ancient LaCloche mountain range, experience the breathtaking beauty of the falls at Chutes Provincial Park, swim in the Spanish River, take a dip into Espanola’s Clear Lake, learn about the region’s colourful heritage at local museums. Terrain—Easy terrain, flat paved roadway. Lee Valley Road is very quiet. The 30 km between Massey and Espanola does not have any services—just lovely landscape. Distance—32 km from Chutes Provincial Park, Massey to Clear Lake Beach in Espanola. Start in either Espanola or Massey. Both have a variety of accommodations. Chutes Provincial Park is open. During Covid, it is operating with some restrictions. We suggest spending a day or two in each community to enjoy all they have to offer. With 3 beach opportunities, this adventure is ideal for the beach-loving. Township of Sables-Spanish Rivers — Massey You’ll find tranquil northern roads guiding you through the LaCloche foothills and dancing along shores of the serene Spanish River as the Trail winds through the Township of Sables-Spanish Rivers. The Township is centred in Massey, a welcoming community with a variety of excellent local restaurants and eateries, a pair of motels, a quaint craft store and coffee shop, a fascinating local museum, a grocer, one of the most generous scoops of ice cream around, and a road that is (quite literally) Seldom Seen.

  • 10 896 Zanatta 6.Indd
    2011 NORTHEASTERN NATURALIST 18(1):1–6 Confi rmation of Obovaria olivaria, Hickorynut Mussel (Bivalvia: Unionidae), in the Mississagi River, Ontario, Canada David T. Zanatta1,* and Daelyn A. Woolnough1 Abstract - A signifi cant and recruiting population of Obovaria olivaria (Hickorynut Mussel) was confi rmed in the Mississagi River, Lake Huron drainage, ON, Canada. This large river unionid mussel is known to use Acipenser fulvescens (Lake Sturgeon) and Scaphirhynchus platorynchus (Shovelnose Sturgeon) as hosts. The Mississagi River is known to have a spawning Lake Sturgeon population. In 9.1 person-hours of snorkel and SCUBA searches, 10 live O. olivaria ranging in length from 36 to 79 mm, including six gravid females, were collected in sandy substrates with water depths from 1.5 to 4 m. Obovaria olivaria in the Mississagi River represent a signifi cant range disjunction from the other extant populations in Canada in the Ottawa and St. Lawrence river drainages. As the conservation status of this rare mussel in Canada is assessed, the geographic genetic population structure and spatial extent among known areas should be studied to under- stand the post-glacial redistribution of the species. Introduction Obovaria olivaria (Rafi nesque) (Hickorynut Mussel), is a deepwater, large river unionid that can be abundant in the Mississippi basin of central North Amer- ica (Parmalee and Bogan 1998, Williams et al. 2008). In contrast, O. olivaria is a rare mussel in the St. Lawrence River and Great Lakes watershed of central North America (Clarke 1981, Metcalfe-Smith et al. 2005, NatureServe 2009) and is cur- rently under assessment by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC).
