This is what you can expect on this trail: The caches in this trail are all named after lakes in our great province. Cache containers are micros and larger. There will be a mix of container types and some will be winter friendly and some won't. For this reason there won't be a winter attribute at all because of snow levels on the sides of the roads in the winter will vary. Some of the caches will require you to walk thru ditches so depending on time of year and water levels rubber boots might be a good idea.
Mackie Lake:
Mackie Lake is a small lake with abundant trout. It is located west of Lynn Lake in northwestern Manitoba, Canada near the border with Saskatchewan. The lake is one of 25 Manitoba memorial lakes named, in July 1947, after 26 men who lost their lives on active service in the Second World War. Mackie Lake is named after Flying Officer Alexander Morton Mackie (service no. J/88245) who, along with his crew (flying Halifax III MZ-805, coded QB-X, 424 Sqdn RCAF from Skipton-on-Swale), failed to return from an operation to mine Flensburg Harbour on 12 January 1945.
