Hi Tim ... could you flip me the link for the map that you mentioned as well? Thanks! I was back to Manitoba twice in the past two months and did a run through Shilo and out on the ranges ... I got totally lost .. it's sure changed from the old days. The only road I recognized was the anti tank road. Hope all is well with you!

@carol: ....and you and your husband can have fun checking each other for ticks when you are done! It seems to me that it was wood ticks, not deer ticks, that I got when I was a kid, but both kinds occur in the area, and deer ticks can carry Lyme disease(although it is more likely in spring and fall).

@carol: Since I can't post URL's, I will suggest you google "Toporama" which is the national topographic series database site. In the search field, put in "Wigle Springs", which is the "real" name of the feature. The road is actually called "Waggle Springs Road", however. You can get a topographic map of the area, right down to a scale of 1:25,000. Since you included your email address, I will email you the actual link to the map, as well, so you can just click on it.

Hi, My husband and I were planning to visit Shilo the middle of August so we will miss the get together later in the month. You mentioned that Waggle Springs is closed off property now, but can someone tell me how to get the area as close as possible. My husband and I are really interested in trying to fish and explore the shore of my old picnic area.
