Story of its Finding and Position Today in Flin Flon
Pratt Even recounts a rugged journey to Flin Flon with multiple portages and boat legs. The group crosses Muddy Lake by canoe, then a Plymouth gas locomotive transports a flat car and passengers toward Camp 6. They reach Barrier Lake aboard a 400-foot motor boat, lunch on board, and meet patrolman Johannson at Camp 38 who warns of moose. The trek continues with tractors, wagons, and more portages to Lake One and Lake Mari where a white yacht awaits with a six-cylinder Russell engine. Johannson sends word to Island Falls and his wife, while the writer jokes about disappearing into the woods where phones don’t reach.
