https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mt1uTw_rzEQ&t=6s This short documentary is for anyone who wants to know the story of the fire that destroyed five buildings at Langskib Basecamp (Island #1222), Lake Temagami, in the summer of 2023. It’s the story of an organization deeply rooted in community, a story of loss, grief and resilience, set amid the breathtaking beauty of northern Ontario. Whether you are connected to Northwaters & Langskib from past experiences, or just learning about NWL for the first time, this is us. Our experience of the fire and the following seasons’ rebuild has been characterized by, above all else, gratitude. We are unbelievably grateful to everyone who showed up and fought the fire. The immediacy and generosity of your efforts saved our basecamp and the trees of Windshift Island (Island #1222). We are unbelievably grateful for all the ways the Temagami community supported us as we re-arranged the logistics of our summer programs in 2023 and completed a rebuild of the buildings lost in 2024. We are unbelievably grateful to our staff an alumni community who carried us through it all. Much love, and Teeth to the Wind. (fb)
