For my very first backcountry trip, ever, in 2002, I dehydrated all of my own food. Even back then it was popular and even more so as it was a lot harder to buy food already packaged and prepared in those foil bags like there is now. I mean, it existed but it was a lot more processed and not quite a delicious and good as the stuff they make is now. In 2002, I [...]

Since meeting my friend Jason last year, he has been going on about this place called McCrae Lake. I had never been there and according to him, it was a gorgeous place to spend a weekend camping, fishing and enjoying nature.

When my friend and fellow blogger Joyce asked me if I wanted to do a trip to Scorch Lake with her, I said yeah! When she told me there were 3 portages totaling over 3 km's, I said ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! I mean, I paddle a kayak, not a canoe, and I have portaged my small kayak, but never that far. I suggested we rent a canoe, then I thought about it for the night. Then [...]
