Saw this about three weeks ago in Mattawa, Ontario, Canada.

Nicely done paint job on a '47 vintage Cub.

Mike:

I didn't speak to the pilot but I heard that he had a "camp" about 8-10 kms North of Mattawa on the Ottawa River and was there for the whole summer. The plane was in immaculate condition.
