Wekusko Falls | Northern Manitoba Road Trip | Ep.3

Our next stop is going to be Wacusco Falls. That is up near Snow Lake, Manitoba. So we're still going north. We're way better than the highways around Winnipeg. I think we're about an hour-ish. Wacusco Falls. So we just arrived at Wacusco Falls Campground. And now we're heading out to where our site was. A nice site. Our own path to the water. Let's go down it. Nice, our own little beach. Proxy will like that. We're just getting everything set up here. Got our dining tent set up, fire pit, camper. This is just a gigantic site, which is sweet. And best of all, nice water view here. There's Mariah sneaking up. Proxy, who's that? Pretty excited, I'm going to do some fishing in there later. Yeah, that's the site. What are we having for dinner? We're having a, I don't know, kind of throw-together stir-fry. We're cheating with pre-made rice and teriyaki sauce. Well, yeah, nobody wants to cook it. Shrimp is pre-cooked. Whatever works. I'm sure it'll be delicious. It's really good. Good morning, everyone. It's midweek, Wednesday. Still at Wacusco Falls. So today we're going to be hiking to the falls a bit later. We're just going to hang out by the water. I'll let Proxy do some swimming and stuff. It's a bit chilly, so she's all wrapped up. Mariah's in here cooking breakfast. What have we got? Eggs. Breakfast sandwiches. Yeah, we're going to hang out, have a relaxing day, check out those falls. We've also changed our plans a bit. We were supposed to do some backcountry camping Thursday night and hike out Friday, but where we're going, the weather forecast is 100% rain, so we've decided to move that. So the next stop after this is going to be Paint Lake. Still going to be rainy weather, but at least we'll have the camper and we won't be doing backcountry in the pouring rain. And then after Paint Lake is when we'll be doing the backcountry stuff. Can't wait. Mariah, how hungry are you? Not very. I'll at least still eat it though. It's really good. Just here hanging out by the little mouth of the lake here. Just playing with Proxy. She's doing some swimming. We've got our solar panels here charging. Enjoying the sun. And periodically there's helicopters that come and land over here. And they are for forest fire prevention. Which is kind of cool seeing all the helicopters come in here. We're just en route to the falls here. Pretty excited because who doesn't like waterfalls? Apparently they're pretty nice. But we basically just kind of walk along the river here and we'll end up there. It's kind of a multi-tiered waterfall system I guess. So basically we walked from all the way around and then we walked around the river here. And then kind of came up over here and it starts over there. And then the river goes down and then it goes down into Waucusco Lake. Pretty nice place. We're just on the other side of the river at the moment. Our campsite is just up over here. And it turned out to be a really nice day. So tonight we're having probably one of my favorite camping meals. It's pretty easy. Perogies and sausage. Or I guess beef salami. That's a wrap for Waucusco Falls. It's raining right now so we're just having coffee and breakfast while we unload some of our footage. This morning when I woke up it was nice and calm and wasn't raining. So I was able to get the drone out over the falls and take some sweet shots. It's been super windy the last few days so I haven't had a chance to throw the drone up. But I can clear it up.
