My first solo backcountry trip was 2 years ago at the Massasauga Provincial Park. It was by kayak and since then I've done many solo kayaking trips and a few solo winter camping trips both by tipi and by tent. I had never gone on a solo canoe trip, however, until this past weekend. At the 150 for 150 event on Canoe Lake the weekend before Canada Day, Jon from Backcountry Custom Canoes answered my [...]

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 [...]

It was an epic weekend. One I will never forget and one I will cherish. It started off with a vision of one person and grew with the passion of others. It displayed our love of the canoe and the honor we all feel to be Canadians, living in this great country. This weeks post will be two videos of the event. Day one, featuring the opening ceremonies, some interviews with a few of the [...]

Have you every wondered what it'd be like to camp with the famous Happy Camper, Kevin Callan? I did too, so I decided to find out! I had chatted with Kevin Callan a few times online at the start of 2017, as he had picked me to do a blurb on my tipi for his winter camping book. When we met at the Outdoor Adventure Show this spring in person, we shared a few stories [...]

The day before the Outdoor Adventure Show, I received an email from David Bain. David, runs the KW Canoe Symposium and he had asked me if I might be interested in possibly speaking at next years event? I was incredibly flattered, and honoured, and, after establishing that I am mainly a kayaker, and finding out that this fact seemed irrelevant as I do also love to canoe, I said I would think about it. I [...]

On saturday July 18th at 4am my friend Steph and I headed up the Trans Canada highway to Killarney Provincial park for a highly anticipated backcountry trip on Carlyle Lake. En route we saw two deers along the highway and then two moose! So totally exciting and I hoped a sign of things to come! Not by any means the best picture, but I love it anyways! Upon arrival we were greeted by enthusiastic park [...]
