Ontario Trails Council. The View from Point Alexander - Water Slide (2005-07-21) Kevin Callan the Happy Camper. Gear | cancanoeodyssey. High Falls at High Water. Recently my cousin Alan dropped by for a visit and some outdoor recreation. As all good tourists to this area should do, we took the walking trail to the rim of the Barron Canyon. And then, having some more time to fill, we followed the Eastern Pines Hiking Trail into High Falls.
(At this time of year, the short-cut into High Falls from near the Brigham Lake parking lot may have flooded sections; see An Early Spring Day in Algonquin Park. And since we were one day early for the opening of the gate into Achray, we had to add another couple of kilometres to the round trip.) The Barron River drains Grand Lake through Stratton Lake. The Stratton Lake drainage features a natural water slide and is more accessible. Just downstream of the water slide is High Falls. Canadian Canoe Routes - Route Description.
