By Priscilla Lister / Copley News Service
We weren't really tourists in the magnificent lake country of Ontario; we were more like pilgrims seeking the same inspiration that drew Canada's legendary painters, the Group of Seven.

People come from all over the world to experience Ontario’s spectacular wilderness. Our 250,000 lakes and 100,000 km (60,000 mi.) of rivers have been explored for hundreds of years, but for the past three years there’s been a unique form of exploration going on in the Temagami region. Groups of mothers and daughters (moms and dots) have been heading out with expert guide Caryn Colman and her ‘dot’, Emily, from their outfitting and lodge operation, Smoothwater, 14 kilometres (9 miles) north of Temagami on James Lake.
