Calling all #Searchmont Ontario folks -- if you've heard of the Doyle farm or Doyle farm road, leave a comment!

Came upon this Sault Star photo when researching the roads that Helen and Vernon would have driven to reach the hunt camp on Long Lake. One of our questions: Was Hwy. 556 paved in 1937? This 1966 photo taken on the #Searchmont Road would indicate otherwise.

Ranger Lake Road and its surrounding terrain plays a large part in A Fatal Affair, as do the bushmen in the vicinity of Searchmont. We hope to explore the collection, meet the historical committee—and maybe even meet some relatives of those 1930s loggers on February 28. #searchmont
