We visited Ouimet Canyon on June 5th just as the Katimavik group to explore and learn a bit more about the Northern Ontario climate. Coming from Yellowknife it was interesting to find out that there was arctic flowers at the bottom of the canyon.
The Cooking workshop took place on July 8th. For a lot of people in the group coming into Katimavik having to cook their own meals or having to cook for 11 people was something new. So we decided to have Sam Mattard the local butcher/excellent chef come over and teach us how to cook bread, strudel, ravioli, lasagna and home made pasta noodles.
Amethyst mining we did July 26th. It was a chance for the group to learn more about the region, living and working in Terrace Bay and Schreiber the participants seem to forget about other industries in the region such as mining.
