The Eastmain River, at km 395 of
the James Bay Road. Fall colours are just about at their peak up
here (Sep 10).
Please note that in this travelogue, I am not
featuring many of the sites along the James Bay Road that are
very scenic or noteworthy, as I have portrayed these in other
Travelogues on this site, as well as
in the Virtual Tours.
My focus for this trip was the
Rupert River (as
always!) and the Trans-Taiga Road.
Blue sky!! It cleared off (or so I
thought).
This is at km 410 of the James Bay Road, still
heading north.
Nice waterfall on the Opinaca
River, at km 411.
I took this movie from the car while driving (shhh ... don't tell the
safe driving people!) to give an idea of what it's like just driving
along the road. Feel free to skip it if this sounds like a waste of time
to you -- it's mainly here for the benefit of remote road addicts (like
me)! At the end
of the movie you will see one of the many red squirrels of the area
making a suicide dash across the road right in front of my car. It's at
km 436.
