welcome to the callenharty.com agawa canyon trip photography page

In the summer of 2005 I won a raffle grand prize and the prize was a two-night stay in Sault Ste. Marie and a one-day train trip from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada several hours north to the Agawa Canyon. I had been on the same train trip several years before and found it to be beautiful, so was excited at the propspect of going back. These are photos from that free weekend across the border to the north.
