- Provincial Parks / Opasquia Wilderness Park
Opasquia Provincial Wilderness Park is one of the most remote and pristine parks in Ontario. Located approximately 175 air miles north of Red Lake, along the Manitoba border, Opasquia offers spectacular wilderness canoeing and great fishing. There are no visitors' facilities. However, white-water canoeing and wilderness trekking are available to those who are able to reach the park, which is accessible by air only. Straddling the Manitoba border, this park supports a large concentration of wolverines. The reason it has been protected as a wilderness park has to do with its distinctive geology. A ridge of glacial till two kilometres wide rises 100 metres above its surroundings. This is the Opasquia Moraine. On the sides of the moraine, wave-cut terraces and segments of raised shoreline indicate the former limit of glacial Lake Agassiz.
