Our Backyard

Run Silent Dog Sled Trips is located at Agimac River Outfitters on Agimac River at the top of Indian Lake, just north of Ignace, Ontario.

Ignace, Ontario is located in the Patricia Region of Ontario. This is one of the 3 sub-regions of the area known as Sunset Country (Travel Area 12). It is approximately the size of the state of Minnesota and has everything the fisherman, adventurer or sportsman could ever dream of.

We are less than a day's drive from many US Midwest cities. All main highways and roads in our area are paved. From the US, there are three border crossings - at International Falls, Minnesota, Baudette, Minnesota and Pigeon River. If you are flying, you can fly into International Falls, Minnesota, Thunder Bay, Ontario or Winnipeg, Manitoba. From there you can rent a car or van or use a shuttle service to get to us.

From Thunder Bay, head west on Highway 11/17. When the highway separates, follow Highway 17 west to Ignace. At Ignace, take Highway 599 north approximately 3 miles. A sign will be visible for Agimac River Outfitters. Turn left off Hwy 599 at the sign and then bear right onto the 325 road. There is a small road sign with 325 road on it. Follow this road for approximately 16 miles.

Below is a map showing how to cut across on Hwy 130 if you are coming through Pigeon River border crossing on Hwy 61. It saves at least a half hour in travel time allowing you to bypass Thunder Bay.

     The economy in and around Ignace is primarily based on tourism, transportation industries, and the forest industry. Ignace has a strong service sector which is well known because of the many rivers and lakes which attract tourists from all over North America. Ignace also offers some great winter events during the middle of February, including the Snowmobile Club's Poker Derby and dance, Health Fair, skating, and various other winter events.
