A Thief in Lake Superior Provincial Park!

At the southern tip of Lake Superior Provincial Park in the Agawa Bay Campgroud, the park attendant warned us about bear sightings around the park, especially around Rhyolite Cove. Jonathan and I decided to stay far away from this tent site to avoid any confrontations. During our visit, we had a sort of confrontation with a particular animal. No, it wasn't with a bear but with a well-fed chipmunk. At one of our favorite campsites on the Bald Head River, this chipmunk would not leave us alone. If I took out our pots for cooking, the chipmunk was right by my side. As we cooked, one of us would have to hold onto our food and make sure it never touched the ground. One morning, while we were busy taking pictures, we accidentally left our granola bars on the top of our food barrels. While our backs were turned the other way, the eager chipmunk jumped onto our food barrels taking one of the granola bars. By the time we had turned around, it was too late. The package had been opened and the little thief was munching away. Being a good sport, he let us take his picture before we reclaimed our stolen goods.
The coastline through the park was absolutely spectacular. Large rugged cliffs and beaches dot the shoreline. We have just reached the Naturally Superior Adventures on the Michipicoten River in Wawa, Ontario where we left another food drop. It was nice to spend the day here - great food, friends, paddling and scenery.
