At this time of year, I have been heading out on day trips on the weekends so that I can spend more time at home at the computer. Yes, it sucks a bit, and YES I am dying to go camping... but sometimes you have to take what you can get. With an upcoming presentation at the KW Canoe Symposium that I am thrilled about, gear reviews due for the brand I ambassador for, Ultimate [...]

About a month ago, my friends from Niagara came up for Galentines weekend. I took them to Arrowhead for a day of winter fun! While we were there, I saw a sign with the dates for the remainder of the years Fire and Ice. The last date listed was Thursday, March 9th.... my birthday! I knew right away that is what I wanted to do for my birthday this year! \ A few [...]

Ever since my visit to Arrowhead last year I have been dying to go back again. When I was in Niagara for Christmas, I had a visit with my friend Andrea, who had been trying to come see me in Muskoka since I'd moved, but hadn't made it yet. We devised a plan and this Saturday, was the day we were going to visit Arrowhead with one of our other awesome friends Kim. As Valentines day [...]

I woke up Saturday morning around 6am with nothing planned for the day. I was just going to relax, catch up on blog posts and maybe watch a few movies. Unfortunately, my brain was not in agreement of any of those things. It was supposed to be really cold out, about -30 with the windchill but sunny and I just had to get outside anyways! Since my last trip at the end of December, testing [...]

I have heard of Limberlost but only vaguely and had never been there. A new friend from Port Carling asked me if I'd like to go snowshoeing there and I was totally up for it! I had just camped for a few days at Mew Lake in the Tipi and headed straight to Limberlost Forest and Nature Reserve from Algonquin Park. The roads were a bit crazy and snow covered but we were going [...]

While staying in a yurt at Mew Lake with my mom, we met a park ranger who had just come from working at Silent Lake. He told us all about the park and that he highly recommended us paying it a visit. I had heard a lot about Silent Lake but had never been there so I was appreciative of the information and decided to look into it further when I got home. A few weeks [...]

Once upon a time, I hated winter ...but then I decided to embrace it. I bought a pair of snowshoes from my favourite place Outdoors Oriented , Elektra's made by Atlas Snowshoe Compamy. Then, I waited, but the snow didn't come! I went winter glamping twice, but it wasn't cold enough for the ice to freeze to skate on, it wasn't snowy enough to snowshoe and cross country skiing wasn't even an option. I was ready, [...]
