Do you mean you don't like it that you've been there & have seen rattlers, or that you don't like going there because you know they're there?

I am really scared of them, but I've never seen one. I even walk on little narrow trails from the huge rocks to the privy & I thump on either side in front of me with a stick to scare any (what my friends & I as teens called) "snattles" (snattle rake) away!

Apparently no visitor to Killbear has EVER been bitten by a rattle snake. That's pretty encouraging.

My husband & I are going to our friend's cottage just outside Algonquin tomorrow, and we have the use of an Algonquin Park Pass - so can go as often as we want. Yay

The thing I like better about Killbear is the huge rock formations. Like Harold Point - it's just acres & acres of rock with some trees & shrubs, but Rock, rocks, rocks. I like that open feeling & being able to see far away.

Do you tent in Algonquin. I'm scared of bears, so that concerns me around Algonquin. Although a few years ago I saw 2 bears at Killbear, but they were definitely "garbage bears"....interested in people food - not people-as-food. Maybe the bears at Algonquin aren't interested in eating people either!!! I just get scared about it, so I'm a little nervous about this coming week!

Are you going to Algonquin this year?

> Killbear provincial park is beautiful, up near the shores of Georgian Bay (or not too far). I just don't like the snakes...the Massasaga Rattlers, so I go over to Algonquin. If the rest of the world could only see the hundreds of thousands of square miles of this,from coast to coast, I don't think they'd believe their eyes.
