The Marsh Trail is one of the many trails you can visit when at Rondeau Provincial Park. I camped at Rondeau from July 24th to July 26th, and the day of our departure, we headed to the Marsh Trail for a hike to stretch our legs before our 4 hour drive back home. Here is the description of the trail from the @ontarioparks website : http://www.ontarioparks.com/park/rondeau (I hope it's okay that I quote this? ) "Marsh Trail – 7.2 [...]

I saw a list of Canada's top 25 parks last year and Rondeau Provincial Park was on that list. I have never been there, so I decided to put a plan in motion to resolve that. My friend Beth was wanting a getaway, so we booked a site and planned our adventure. Here is the list of Canada's top 25 sites I saw: http://www.explore-mag.com/the-top-25-campsites-in-canada As I've been camping quite a bit this summer so far, [...]

Yummy things to eat in the Backcountry when you’re not roughing it!

I have had a few requests from people to do a post about food in the backcountry. Even my own mom was surprised when I told her we were having steak. What? she said... You are going into the backcountry, you should be eating hot dogs no? hahaha. Well, I could, but I don't really like hot dogs, so I figure out fun things to eat and ways to keep them from spoiling and enjoy [...]

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 [...]

I need to start this post by saying The Crack is the best hike I have ever done! I just couldn't wait until I got to the end, there, or, here. Might as well be aligned right? But I will now go back to the beginning and explain why and try and show you with the photos I took along the way just how amazingly awesome this trail is! It was a gorgeous day, Monday [...]

At 4am on Canada Day, 2015, on a cloudy drizzly morning, I headed out, car packed, kayak on top, and mom in the passenger seat, to Grundy Lake Provincial Park in Britt, ON. I was really excited to see this park as I had joined Twitter a few months ago and someone tweeted some photos from their trip there. Once I did some research on it I was convinced it was a park I wanted [...]
