Episode 14: Shanty Life Wrap Up and 2008's Last Squared-Timber Crib Run

I had originally thought that three episodes would cover just about all there was to say about the history of logging in Algonquin Park. But when going back over my notes, I realized that I wasn’t quite done. There were a few more amusing shanty life stories that I still wanted to share and a few more shanty songs that needed a hearing. In addition, I realized that another missing link was to share something about the last crib river run that Ron Corbett wrote so eloquently about in 2008 in his book One Last River Run.  So you‘ll have to bear with me, as this episode is a bit more of a hodge-podge of different things. Hopefully, you’ll find it fun and interesting.
