Happy New Year everyone! Just under the wire for 2023 I've finished up my Labour Day trip report. This was a four day loop out of Cedar Lake. We stayed on Catfish, Philip and Clamshell. This was a top five all-time trip as far as I'm concerned. The route was awesome, the weather was perfect and...

Thanks guys, glad you enjoyed it. This was a great trip. Exhausting, but fun. I think next spring I'm going to target fewer alders and less snow. We'll see how that works out.

My first trip of the year was a six day loop out of the Kiosk access point in Algonquin Park back in May. The route took us down Maple and Erables, up Maple Creek, through Birchcliffe to Highview, along the Nip and back up through Nadine etc. This one covered a lot of ground that's been on my...

Hey Everyone, I got one final paddle in at the start of November. With the temperatures expected to be in the mid teens that first weekend, I convinced a buddy to drive up to Sec Lake with me for a day trip. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, and well worth the four hour round trip from Ottawa...

Thank you very much Patrick, glad you enjoyed it. Where are you headed in the northwest?

Thanks! Glad you liked it

Thank you!

Over Labour Day I did a four night almost-loop out of Lake Opeongo in Algonquin Park. It was a great trip. The route took us to a few lakes I'd never been through before, including Lake Lavielle and Dickson Lake. I really liked them both. Dickson in particular was really satisfying. I've been...

Hi folks, Hope everyone is adjusting to fall tripping alright. August was family trip month for me. I did three shorter trips with my wife and kids. The first was an overnight to Tepee Lake with my son that managed to cram a fair bit in to what was effectively 18 hours of camping. The second...

Thank you!

So far that’s the only section of the nipissing i’ve done. I guess the good news is that there’s nowhere to go but up from here!

Thanks Glenn! The canoe is light, just under 30 lbs. the skin is ballistic nylon and it’s tough as nails. I ran it over all kinds of pointy crap on that river and didn’t so much as dent it.

Hi all, I did a short loop out of the Tim access point in August. It wasn’t meant to be short, in fact it was supposed to be my big solo for the year, but I ended up falling way behind schedule and cutting it short thanks to some poor planning on my part. If you’re a fan of shallow rivers and...

Thank you very much! And, sure, I’d be happy to help out with any website questions

Thanks Dougd! Glad you liked it.
