    Algonquin in September- Trip Route Suggestions

    I'm planning a 5-7 day canoe trip in Algonquin Park for this coming September, 2020. We both have ultra light solo canoes and are experienced trippers.

    I haven't had a chance to fully check this out but I'm certain it will be of interest here: https://barrenlands.library.utoronto.ca/ The objective of the Barren Lands digital collection was to digitize and provide web access to the archives of Canadian explorer J.B. Tyrrell.

    Brook Trout Fishing Adirondack Mountain Kettle Ponds

    You have to "carry" (portage) your gear and boats, paddle across the larger lakes, then do more carries and more paddling, then repeat that again before you reach these kettle ponds. We caught ~16 brook trout of varying sizes (9, 12, 14, and 18") over 2 days and we let 1/2 of them go. Larry...

    A 6 mile carry in the 6 million acre Adirondack Park

    May 15 - 17, 2017 I head out for a 2 night stay on Pillsbury Lake located in the West Canada Lake Wilderness of the Adirondack Park. I end up having to carry all my gear in for 6+ miles as the seasonal road gate was closed. I fished for brook trout (unsuccessfully), carried over to Cedar Lake...

    Winter 2017: A 5-day solo trip with plans to return

    Hey Snapper, Yes, I let the toboggan go but it didn't negotiate the run all the way down and I had to resend it down "piece meal". I did video it but it didn't make the "final cut" it would have looked similar to previous video I've done. https://youtu.be/Sf7-8sa8UY0?t=26
