Submitted by Debbie Ray Everyone should experience winter camping at least once in their life time, it is enlightening and empowering. Ever wondered what it’s like to sleep in a “Quinzee”? Twelve grade seven students from Bruce Peninsula District School (BPDS) can tell you all about their experience! A quinzee is similar to an igloo; an igloo is made out of blocks of snow, but making blocks of snow on the Bruce Peninsula isn’t particularly easy. Our conditions are more suited to quinzees, as all you need is a relatively flat area with an abundance of snow. The schoolyard at BPDS made a perfect base camp for our “Intermediate Outers” on Friday, January 28th. Quinzee construction began on Friday morning with the help from the grade seven and eight classes. Five mounds of snow were piled to the desired height (typically six to ten feet), and then allowed to harden for the remainder of the day. After school on Friday, four groups of three students claimed their snow mound and it all became very real. Students Photo: Ready to brave the cold winter night. Left to Right: Benton Lancaster, Evan Liverance and Kyle Robbins Continued on page 15. Charges Withdrawn in Lindsay Road 20 Beach Dispute A long-standing dispute about the use of a beach at the end of Bass Road (Lindsay Road 20 area) has taken another bizarre twist. Adjacent landowners claim their property line extends to the water’s edge, wherever that may be. Traditional users of the beach say that public use of the beach was guaranteed in the original Plan of Subdivision. On September 4, 2010, a group of citizens entered the beach (photo below) and the adjacent landowners called the OPP. Police officers attended and wrote trespassing tickets to three people. The tickets were contested on the grounds that the beach is public, not private, property. The court date was to have been Jan 27, but the Crown Prosecutor withdrew the charges. A similar dispute at “The Rocks” at Whiskey Harbour reached a similar impasse many years ago. That case is currently winding its way through the legal system. A Tight Spot for an Emergency Vehicle Carter Lane, Lion’s Head — one of the prettiest places in Northern Bruce Peninsula, reached via a romantic, one lane road that twists along the shoreline with no turnaround at the end. Fire and Ambulance crews were misdirected here once in 2010. They spent quite a while getting turned around after the 911 operator gave them the correct location. Meanwhile a man lay dying at Carter Road in Cape Chin South. The Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula is moving to end such confusion (see Publisher’s Rant, page 4).

But it was not entirely an ill wind. It allowed Bill Caulfeild-Browne to get a gorgeous picture of Big Tub (this page) as waves pounded along the north shore of the peninsula and the wind whipped the spray inland. And when the storm finally abated, a couple of BPDS Outers Alumni — Travis Kelly and Will Francis — decided it would be fun to snowshoe in to Indian Head Cove in the national park and see how it looked after the storm. They found a wonderland, where trees had been bent to the ground then buried under tons of ice and snow. They took a few pictures for Facebook and resolved to tell all their friends. They returned the following day with a larger group of Outers Alumni. Everybody took pictures and video for Facebook and resolved to let the world know about it. Two days after that the path was so well-travelled you no longer needed snowshoes. Since then, dozens, maybe hundreds of people have made the walk and all have been rewarded with a spectacular scene. The windstorm of December 12th and 13th taken by Bill Caulfeild-Browne from the south side of Big Tub Harbour.
