Description
This photograph was taken from a campsite on Burnt Island Lake in Algonquin Park, Ontario, Canada. The campsite was on the east side of the lake, and originally the site of Camp Minnesing, a seasonal resort operated from 1913 - early 1950's. It had various ownership groups over the years and, like all the resorts back then, was eventually closed and torn down. The main road/wagon trail that provided access to it, the Barnet Depot Farm and logging camps in that area were eventually closed and reclaimed by nature.
The campsite is a perfect haven on the lake, with many old relics to find now taken over by the natural elements.
