Temagami Ontario, Canada is one of the world’s premiere wilderness canoe tripping destinations. During this trip I was able to photograph a few aerial scenes of a summer wilderness canoe trip in Temagami.

This was the first fly-in canoe trip that I’ve done. A short flight with Temagami’s Lakeland Airways on a classic de Havilland Beaver float plane took us to Lady Evelyn Lake.

From there, we paddled the 75+km back to Temagami through Lady Evelyn Lake, Diamond Lake, Sharp Rock Inlet, Kokoko Lake and the Northeast Arm of Lake Temagami. (Check it out on Jeff’s Temagami Map).

What makes Temagami such an amazing wilderness canoe trip destination (besides remote quintessential Canadian Shield scenery of course) is that for that entire 75km of canoeing, there was less than 1km of portaging! This is much different than other more well known Ontario Canada backcountry wilderness canoe trip destinations like Algonquin Provincial Park – where sometimes it feels like you’re portaging as much as paddling.
