I froze that burger and then brought it on my camping trip making an avocado spread for the bun and topping it with all kinds of yummy things to make it extra tasty. Due to concussion #2 this post will be the youtube video that I created for Camper Christina Cooks - Making Homemade [...]

With winter camping well under way, I needed to prepare a delicious hearty meal to bring with me on my winter trips. I have never made chicken stew before, but I put together the ingredients that I had, that I liked and thought would be tasty and it turned out amazingly well. Now, one of my favourite meals! Hope you enjoy this weeks post, a new addition to the Camper Christina Cooks Series, [...]

This weeks blog post will be directed to a video from my Camper Christina Cooks Series, Making Prosciutto Basil Tomato Pasta during my trip this summer to Tim Lake. I could write up a post on it as well, but for the cooking videos, it just seems easier to do it by video alone. I hope you enjoy this weeks post. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbe5-wa1FHk If you would like to say hi, ask a question or leave [...]

On my camping trip over the May long weekend, I made strawberry pancakes using dehydratred strawberries that I made earlier in the season and topped them with my homemade maple syrup which I also made earlier this year. Due to concussion #2 and working on renovating my new house, this post will be the youtube video that I created for Camper Christina Cooks - Making Strawberry Pancakes. I hope you don't mind and that you [...]

Packing for my French River Kayaking Trip

Last year I went on a few trips that were a couple days longer than weekend trips. As I camp so often, I try and make 3 and 4 day weekends with my vacation time, instead of taking an entire week or two off at once. That way I can enjoy being outdoors much more, in my opinion. One of these trips was a 4 day, 3 night trip [...]

Since starting my blog and youtube channel, I have gotten a lot of requests from people to see what I pack for my trips, so today I am posting what I packed for my 5 day Algonquin trip last summer. This canoe trip, was not only the longest trip I'd done solo, but also the first time I was portaging a canoe daily to get to each site. I had only portaged a canoe myself [...]

In February, while attending the Outdoor Adventure Show, I met up with Ingo from KIHD Products. They make an amazing stick stove that I have heard nothing but good things about. I spent some time talking to Ingo at the show and happily picked up one of their stoves to test out. The stove I got was the KIHD Deluxe. Since receiving my concussion on January 3rd, I have not been able to go camping. [...]

It was a great weekend, it was cold, it was wet, it was windy and I vowed momentarily not to camp again until next summer, but it was a total hoot! I had been in correspondence with Mike Burns who had provided me with a huge amount of advice and information regarding my recent solo trip to Killarney. I had met Mike at the 150 through another friend Derek, from Paddling Adventures Radio, a podcast [...]

My new Pot Set – Testing it out at Bon Echo PP

By Christina|2015-10-22T07:41:52-04:00October 22nd, 2015|Categories: Adventure, backcountry, camping, Canada, cooking, Exploring, food, Joe Perry, Nature, pan, portage, pot set, pots|Tags: @melbaseto, @tctrail, @woods_canada, #backcountry, #camping, #canadiantire, #cooking, #food, #pans, #pot, #potset, #woodsexplorer|

I have been backcountry camping and camping in general for over 15 years. I love being out in nature and preparing cool things to eat. I rarely buy the dehydrated bags of meals as I find them loaded with salt and I tend to get migraines from them, so I do my best to get creative when cooking on my camping trips. I bought my first camping pot set about 18 years ago and have [...]

Longpoint Provincial Park – Playing with FIRE!

Longpoint Provincial Park is the fourth oldest park in Ontario, boasting over 1.5 km's of sandy beach! It is one of my favourite beaches in Ontario and I have been camping at Longpoint for about 8 years straight now. The tradition was started by my friend Cynthia, who used to have a group of her friends join her there annually, and has continued on with our volleyball group, spending a few days of fun in [...]
