Next week
we will be traveling on Lake
Winnipeg . Lake
Winnipeg is a huge, 300-mile long lake that we will be traveling
on for the rest of the adventure.
We make a 50-mile crossing of the lake and hop from island to island. The
islands are spread out between 5 and 20 miles apart. After we cross the
lake, we will travel down the Eastern shore of the lake. After we cross
the lake, how close to shore should we travel? If we stay really close to
shore, we will probably see more animals, but the snow will be deeper and
make travel harder. If we stay out a little further from shore, we might
miss a few animals, but travel will probably be easier. The last option
would be to travel far from shore. We would have little chance of seeing
wildlife, but we would encounter the easiest and fastest travel conditions.
Remember the faster we travel the more time we have to explore after we
set up camp, which is often the best time to encounter animals.
What should we do? A)Stay really close to shore and probably see more animals, but have harder travel conditions. B) Stay out a little further from shore where it is easier to travel, but close enough to see most of the animals that are likely to be along the edge of the lake. C) Travel far from shore with little chance of seeing wildlife, but the easiest and fastest travel conditions. What animal should we try to find and talk about in our journal entries this week? A) The Beaver B) The fox C) The Raven
