Fire Ravaged Pickerel River

"Fire Ravaged Pickerel River" by Debbie Oppermann. The Pickerel River is a tributary of the French River Ontario Canada and some areas were greatly affected by the very large Parry Sound Forest Fire 33 in 2018. When motoring down the Pickerel River outlet in our motorboat we eventually got to the last area where the forest fire was finally extinguished and a thunder storm was heading our way.The forest fire was devastating but as this was the following year you can see the mosses, lichen, wildflowers and some bushes have new growth.
