These photos, courtesy of Gord Brown, are of the last log drive on the Black River, which started at Wren Lake, south of Dorset. They were taken by his mother at what was known as the Hindon Shute about 3-4 kilometres north of where Highway 118 crosses the river. Brown believes it took place in the spring of 1943. <\/p>\n\n\n
