He stayed there for a few weeks, departed on an unsuccessful military expedition with his Huron-Wendat allies (see below), then returned and spent the winter there.\u00a0 He took this opportunity to survey and write about the area, recording his observations of his Huron-Wendat hosts, their customs and the structure of their society.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">Champlain travelled among the 18 native villages in the area, with names such as Baie de Matchidache, Baie du Tonnerre, Toanch\u00e9, Carmaron, and Carhagouha, home to some 2000 warriors. He also travelled westward into Petun territory, of which he wrote: \u201c<em>This country is very fine and fertile, and travelling through it is very pleasant<\/em>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The hills and streams made for a pastoral landscape that reminded Champlain of Brittany, while the trees reminded him of those in France. The land was fertile. He saw grape vines growing and tasted plums, raspberries, strawberries, small wild apples, nuts, wild cherries and black cherries. He described forests of fir, \u201ct<em>he regular retreat of partridges and hares.<\/em>\u201d Along with corn, he saw a variety of other crops, such as pumpkins and vegetables. Champlain was fascinated by this pleasant, abundant country, where the R\u00e9collet and Jesuit missionaries would one day come to live.<\/p>\n<h4>GEORGIAN BAY<\/h4>\n<p>Georgian Bay, northeast arm of Lake\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/lake-huron\/\">Huron<\/a>\u00a0in southcentral Ontario. It is shielded from the lake by the limestone spine of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/niagara-escarpment\/\">Niagara Escarpment<\/a>, which extends in a great arc northwest up the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/bruce-peninsula\/\">Bruce Peninsula<\/a>. The bay is fed from Lake Superior via the North Channel, between Manitoulin Island and the north shore, and independently by the Mississagi, Spanish, French, Magnetawan, Muskoka, Severn and Nottawasaga rivers. The strait between the Bruce Peninsula and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/manitoulin-island\/\">Manitoulin Island<\/a>\u00a0is called Main Channel (25 km wide).<\/p>\n<p>In contrast to the soft, white limestone cliffs of the west shore, the east shore is cut into the hard edge of the Canadian\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/shield\/\">Shield<\/a>, fractured into myriad bays, inlets and sounds, with thousands of islands strewn along the coasts. On the inner, southwest curve of Nottawasaga Bay are numerous sandy beaches, the longest of which is Wasaga. Located around the bay (from southwest to northeast) are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/owen-sound\/\">Owen Sound<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/collingwood\/\">Collingwood<\/a>, Wasaga Beach,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/midland\/\">Midland<\/a>, Port McNicoll, Victoria Harbour and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/parry-sound\/\">Parry Sound<\/a>; in summer local residents are greatly outnumbered by tourists.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/etienne-brule\/\">Br\u00fbl\u00e9<\/a>\u00a0was the first European to see the bay (perhaps as early as 1610) and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/samuel-de-champlain\/\">Champlain<\/a>\u00a0came via the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/french-river\/\">French River<\/a>\u00a0(1615) to visit the Huron, who lived on a small peninsula along the southeast shore (<em>see\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/thecanadianencyclopedia.ca\/article\/huronia\/\">Huronia<\/a>).
