CIRCULATION 1,500 A FREE PUBLICATION T T THE VOICE OF THE TEMAGAMI LAKES ASSOCIATION (TLA) WINTER 2012 Lack of Bridge Hampers TAFIP’s Efforts For years the Temagami Area Fish Involvement Program (TAFIP) volunteers had a wooden bridge to cross as they traveled to the two rearing ponds off Roosevelt Road. The bridge enabled them to cross a creek whose water flows from Rib and Granite Lakes to Petrault Lake. In 2010, however, after the Min- istry of Natural Resources (MNR) personnel inspected the bridge and Andre Lamothe (5th from left) with some of his team, who now have year-round employment in Temagami. found it to be unsafe, the MNR re- moved the bridge.

  • Parents Enter Here Welcome to Keewaydin! Keewaydin Camp Wilderness Canoe Trips for Boys and Girls
    KEEWAYDIN Parents Enter Here Welcome to Keewaydin! Keewaydin Camp Wilderness Canoe Trips for Boys and Girls Established in 1893 and located on Lake Temagami, in Ontario, Canada, Keewaydin is the world’s oldest canoe tripping summer camp. Keewaydin remains true to its founding principles, introducing youth to wilderness canoeing and camping with minimum time spent in base camp. Our base camp, cabins, dining hall, and lodge, serve as a jumping off point and a comfortable place for campers to return after each canoe trip. The primary time for campers at Keewaydin is spent canoeing and camping, traveling from lake to lake, and learning to make a temporary home in the wilderness. Our vision is to blend our camp traditions with current best practices of experiential education, combined with passionate and experienced staff and an abundance of beautiful camping wilderness, which results in a rich summer experience that positively impacts the life of every camper. Keewaydin Camp is part of the Keewaydin Foundation, a non-profit organization located in Vermont, whose mission is to provide outstanding camping adventures for boys and girls. what do we promise? Fun, empowering, and safe camping excursions for kids, building outdoor skills while fostering strength, leadership, self-reliance, confidence, and perseverance. Groups of six to eight boys or girls become a team (section), each member essential to the group’s success. Lifelong friendships are formed, and campers leave Keewaydin with a new stronger sense of self. Our remarkable proximity to a myriad of canoe routes, within an easy push-off from our docks, affords our campers easy access to highly- coveted wilderness and pristine waterways.

  • Temagami Area Rock Art and Indigenous Routes
    Zawadzka Temagami Area Rock Art 159 Beyond the Sacred: Temagami Area Rock Art and Indigenous Routes Dagmara Zawadzka The rock art of the Temagami area in northeastern Ontario represents one of the largest concentrations of this form of visual expression on the Canadian Shield. Created by Algonquian-speaking peoples, it is an inextricable part of their cultural landscape. An analysis of the distribution of 40 pictograph sites in relation to traditional routes known as nastawgan has revealed that an overwhelming majority are located on these routes, as well as near narrows, portages, or route intersections. Their location seems to point to their role in the navigation of the landscape. It is argued that rock art acted as a wayfinding landmark; as a marker of places linked to travel rituals; and, ultimately, as a sign of human occupation in the landscape. The tangible and intangible resources within which rock art is steeped demonstrate the relationships that exist among people, places, and the cultural landscape, and they point to the importance of this form of visual expression.

  • Two Late Woodland Midewiwin Aspects from Ontario
    White Dogs, Black Bears, and Ghost Gamblers: Two Late Woodland Midewiwin Aspects from Ontario JAMES B. BANDOW Museum of Ontario Archaeology, University of Western Ontario INTRODUCTION Historians and ethnographers have debated the antiquity of the Midewiwin. Entrenched in historical discourse is Hickerson’s (1962, 1970) theory that the Midewiwin was a recent native resistance movement, a socio-evolutionary response to the changing culture patterns resulting from culture contact with Europeans. Other scholars view the Midewiwin as a syncretism, suggesting that a prehistoric component became intertwined with Christian influences that resulted in the ceremonial practices observed by ethnohistorians (Mason 2009; Aldendefer 1993; Dewdney 1975; Landes 1968). Recent critiques, however, provide evidence from material culture studies and center on the largely Western bias inherent in Hickerson’s diffusionist argument surrounding the post-contact origin of the Midewiwin. These arguments note structural similarities observed in birch bark scroll depictions, rock paintings and pictographs with historical narratives, ethnographic accounts, and oral history. These multiple perspectives lead some historians to conclude the practice was a pre-contact phenomenon (e.g., Angel 2002:68; Peers 1994:24; Schenck 1997:102; Kidd 1981:43; Hoffman 1891:260). Archaeological and material culture studies may provide further insight into understanding the origins of the Midewiwin. Oberholtzer’s (2002) recent overview of dog burial practices, for instance, compared prehistoric ritual patterns with the known historical practices and concluded that the increased complexity of the Midewiwin Society is an elaboration of substantive indigenous practices that must predate any European influence. This paper documents the archaeological continuity and syncretism of Mide symbolism observed from the Great Lakes region.

We have put together an information package that will be helpful in your preparation for your trip in July. The focus of our trips are to provide students with the opportunity to gain valuable knowledge about themselves, the others in their group and the pristine Canadian wilderness surrounding them all while packing in as much fun as possible. Throughout the trip, you will receive instruction in a variety of wilderness skills, including canoeing, wilderness navigation (with map and compass), outdoor cooking and camping. During the canoe trip portion of the program the group of students will be divided into groups of 10, both to abide by Ontario Provincial Park camping guidelines and to ensure proper supervision of students. Each group of 10 students will be led by two trained and experienced outdoor guides, one male and one female. The main schedule and information package are listed on the following pages. Please read the documentation carefully as it outlines the complete details of the trip. Hopefully this package will aid you in your preparation. However, please feel free to contact me should you have any questions or concerns.

  • Mining, Geology, and Geological History of Garnet at the Barton Garnet Mine, Gore Mountain, New York William Kelly
    6: RARE EARTH ELEMENT AND YTTRIUM MINERAL OCCURENCES IN THE ADIRONDACK MOUNTAINS 7 MINING, GEOLOGY, AND GEOLOGICAL HISTORY OF GARNET AT THE BARTON GARNET MINE, GORE MOUNTAIN, NEW YORK WILLIAM KELLY New York State Geologist, Emeritus, Division of Research and Collections, New York State Museum, Albany, NY 12230, [email protected] KEYWORDS: Garnet, Mining, Gore Mountain, Metamorphism, Lyon Mountain Granite ABSTRACT Garnet megacrysts commonly 30 centimters (cm) ranging up to 1 meter (m) in diameter occur at the summit of Gore Mountain, Adirondacks, NY and were mined there for abrasives for more than a century. The mine, owned by Barton Mines Co., LLC, is roughly 2 km x 150 m and is located in a hornblende-rich garnet amphibolite at the southern boundary of a metamorphosed olivine gabbro body that is in fault contact with charnockite. Barton supplies garnet, a chemically homogeneous pyrope-almandine, to the waterjet cutting, lapping, and abrasive coatings industries. The garnet megacrysts are reliably dated at 1049 ± 5 Ma. The growth of the garnet megacrysts was facilitated by an influx of hydrothermal fluid emanating from the ore body’s southern boundary fault. The fluids were most probably associated with the intrusion of the Lyon Mountain Granite (1049.9 ± 10 Ma) and/or associated pegmatitic rocks late in the tectonic history of the Adirondacks. INTRODUCTION The Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York are a small outlier of a larger body of rocks of similar age and geologic history that is located to the north in Canada. The Adirondack region can be loosely divided into amphibolite metamorphic facies Lowlands, in the northwest, and the granulite facies Central Highlands, which are 86 THE ADIRONDACK JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES VOLUME 21 87 7: MINING, GEOLOGY, AND GEOLOGICAL HISTORY OF GARNET AT THE BARTON GARNET MINE, GORE MOUNTAIN, NEW YORK separated by a very large, northwest-dipping fault zone.
