It has taken me over a year to get to this point, but I finally made it and I am proud! I completed my first winter backcountry trip with the tipi and it was a great adventure!

I have been camping almost every weekend since I moved up to Muskoka. It's been amazing but on this weekend I'd decided to take a break and head home to see my family. That left the Sunday open for a day trip though and I had been hearing about this place called Moon River since I'd arrived, so I figured it was time to check it out! I put my boat up on my truck [...]

Yes, it is embarassing , but, even so, I am hoping that people will see [...]
