I have always loved the beauty of Georgian Bay. You see, I have a thing for rocks. I just love them and Georgian Bay is full of them, in all different shapes, sizes and colors. Then there's the water... it is this deep deep blue color... so pretty! I spent some time on Georgian Bay during my Level 2 Sea Kayaking Course and I have wanted to go back ever since. The problem was, like [...]

Before taking the Level 2 Sea Kayaking course with Ontario Sea Kayak Centre , I would've never attempted to camp out in the middle of Georgian Bay, on crown land, without being with someone who was experienced in doing so. During my entire history of backcountry camping, I have used a method called handrailing and never knew how to use a compass. I basically brought the map for the area I was in, and used landmarks, [...]

Hardy Lake Provincial Park is about 20 minutes from my new home. I actually came to visit it the day of my job interview, but knowing [...]
