I find it absolutely amazing how much adventure I can pack into a short trip, this one, being only 18 hours from put in to take out. As some of you may know, I recently purchased a house in Muskoka, after over 2 years of looking, and have been doing renovations on it for a few weeks now. There is a lot left to do, but summer is also here, I've missed 5 months of [...]

When I camped with The Happy Camper last month, I had no idea we would be heading out on another trip so soon. We had discussed the big 150th birthday this year and I had mentioned I wanted to do something awesome, but hadn't made plans yet. Kevin had originally had something booked, but it was cancelled, so, it left us both open for the long weekend and it being such a big deal, we [...]

I had plans to head over and visit my kayaking coach for some training in preparation of my Level 1 Sea Kayak Instructor Course, but as sometimes plans do, they were moved to another day during the week. This put me at 8am on a Saturday morning, kayak on car all ready to go, and no plans for the weekend. Guess I could start my kayak camping season after all? You didn't have to twist [...]

Last year I went on my first solo trip in the backcountry. It was at The Massasauga and it was awesome and I have been wanting to go back. I had every intention of spending last weekend at home. Well my new home in Port Carling, but on Friday around 1pm, I was advised I could go home early. So at 3pm, I decided to call it a day and packed up my camping gear. [...]
