Just upkeep

During the the last couple of seasons, we have been fighting an economic downturn on our largest market.  While these things are frustrating, we have seen downturns before in our 25 years running Ignace Outposts.

We adjust and continue our best.  One of our strategies is shutting down a couple of low utilization camps.  This helps streamline our operation as well as rest the fisheries.  We don’t abandon these sites since we know we’ll have them up and running again soon.  Therefore we still maintain them ready to go.

At Gamble Lake Randy, Joey and I were there last week to redeck the dock.  It was a big job but we had great weather and that combined with our ambition, the job was enjoyable.
