'I've always thought his spirit is still here. I feel he is watching from the dark of the woods. This is Grey Owl country. The real sadness is that his song is not easy to hear". ~ Ray Mears

Experience the Old Growth Forest and beauty that captured Grey Owl’s heart, traveling by land, air, and paddle into the heart of Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park. A film by Goh Iromoto.
