Hey all ... just got back from the park with the kids and here is some up to date intel.  

Route
Access #3 Magnetawan
N1 -  Misty (east end)
N2 - White Trout
N3 - Timberwolf
N4 - Misty (west end)
N5 - Daisy

- you do not need to go to the permit office, it is closed
- park was less busy than usual, lots of available campsites
- mosquitos came out at 9pm and disappeared at 10, they were not that bad, 3 or 4 buzzing you at a time, portages had some bugs but nothing too bothersome, I know this is relatively speaking LOL.  My kids are covered in bites, I'm not!
- deer flys had their moments, especially on white trout for whatever reason
- many dead coniferous trees along the shoreline on white trout, anybody know the reason?
- comet NEOWISE was visible
- water levels on the Petawawa, Grassy Bay, and MacIntosh Creek were high in all sections, beaver dams could be paddled over going with the flow
- some portages on the Petawawa could be run depending on your level of comfort

Hope this helps!
Matt
