snowmobiles at birds eye view - explorers snow tour

Point of Interest #2 on the Explorers Snow Tour is the Bird's Eye View. From up here, you can see how the glacier that went through here 10,000 or so years ago shaped the land. A must for anyone sledding in the area, you'll find it a few kilometres north of Mattawa on the A112A OFSC trail.

Explorer's Point

At first glance, the small log building situated on Mattawa’s Explorer’s Point seems unassuming—especially since it’s dwarfed by a 16-foot carved wooden statue of the town’s folk hero, Big Joe Mufferaw, standing just outside. But walk through the doors of the Mattawa & District Museum and you've just entered a treasure chest of historic wonders.
