I have been chatting with an awesome guy online since November 2017, John Van Barriger from The Outdoor Kind. We connected through social media due to mutual friends and similar interests and I have always thought what John does is really cool! After chatting for a year, I finally got to meet John at the Ontario Winter Camping Symposium. He drove all the way from Wisconsin to attend the show and meet a bunch of [...]

I have always wanted to do a winter backcountry trip in Killarney, but due to the tipi being so heavy and not having a clue where to go, I hadn't made it there as of yet. Over the summer, I had stopped in to visit the lovely staff at the office at George Lake. I was doing a 5 day, 4 night solo trip and I had a few questions. I got all the answers [...]

A few weeks before the hot tent was done, I 'd made plans to take it out into the backcountry with my friend Sue, from Sue's Outdoor Crew. She had spent the weekend before making a sled so she could carry her gear on it and some of the items needed for our weekend.
