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 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 [...]

Have you ever wanted to climb a wall of ice? For me the answer is "ABSOLUTELY!" A few months ago I went on a waterfall trip to see some frozen waterfalls in the Hamilton area. Tiffany Falls, a gorgeous sight frozen was my favourite of the three I visited that day. Upon doing research for the blog post, I discovered that people actually climb it in the winter. WHAT? For real? How cool is [...]
