Floating a Car in 2 Rowboats - Mackie Lake
Summary
George Salmond was the owner of Salmond's Resort on Mississagagon Lake. He had a hunting camp on Mackie Lake which only had water access and only primitive roads (trails) around the hunting camp. To get the car across the lake they floated it across in 2 rowboats fastened together...Ingenuity at it's best!
