Ghosts unless they hang along the river banks as it's the one place I haven't got to with the sled. Much like the Caribou they say are there. I think I seen weird tracks and poop piles one winter many moons ago(bou).
Would be cool to see either an Elk or Bou up there.

I forget the number of elk, but there was a reintroduction done at Amadou lake in 1982 and the animals all dispersed. That winter a friend out by Newbrook had a old wooden granary with oats totally destroyed by a number of elk which was sort of odd as there always was the "odd" one or two in the area, but never the numbers indicated by the amount of sign at the granary.
