We had a guest this past week that grew up coming to Red Lake with his family as a kid in the 70’s. They stayed at Black Bear Lodge when Walt and Millie Rundle owned it before they built and started Eagle Falls Lodge. During those trips they took the chance to fly into …
So here’s the thing….. Being in Canada on the 4th of July is pretty much like being in Canada on any other day of the year. Which will just not suffice. As you may remember reading last year, Travis has a certain affinity for brightly colored explosives. Like a moth to a flame that one. …
Hey fans! It was brought to our attention that people have tried and failed to leave comments on our blog. Well, chalk that up to a rookie mistake on our end. When we view each blog post it always shows a box and option for posting a comment. Apparently that was because we were logged into …

Some rain is much appreciated, but all this water has to go somewhere and there has been some flooding …
Travis has been coming up here for a long time and can probably count the number of times he has seen or heard of someone seeing a snake on one hand. So they certainly aren’t considered common in these parts as far as wildlife goes. However, last week two of our guests got a picture …
Well folks, another week has come and gone already. This group’s rain gear was well tested during the first half of the week. It would be sunny one minute and then we’d be in a down pour the next. Everyone finally got the chance to dry out their rain gear (and shoes, and …
