0.28 inToday was LONG and WET !!! We had trouble finding our passage through Herring Chutes so we did a lot of backtracking. What should have been a paddle of 6.7 miles turned out to be a paddle of 11.8 miles. It rained all morning long starting just after we shoved off and ending just as we landed at our campsite. Since we were so wet and tired, our...

0.08 inToday we crossed the bay to reach the Bustard Islands. The morning was windy and the waves were 1 to 2 feet. I rode with Danny and our canoe was very unstable. Dan was not happy to be so shaky. Once inside the Bustards, we traveled down the "Gun Barrel" where we saw some nice cottages and some very clear water. We paddled to the east side of the island...

0.55 inWe got up early to cross the bay before the waves picked up. Just before we committed to the crossing, the guide decided that the weather looked ominous and had the crew pull into shore at Northeast Point. Good thing too! We weren't even completely out of our canoes when the store hit. We rigged the dining fly the best we could to protect us but, half of us...

0.08 inToday, we were faced with two portages. The first was the hardest and got us out of Fox Lake. It was about 'only' 1/3 mile long. However, it was a real bear just to carry the gear to the far end. Then we had to do it with the canoes. Luckily, we only had to carry the canoes to the south end of a pond and paddle down to another short...

0.00 inEveryone slept in today. A couple, Dan R and me, were up around 7am. The rest were up around 9am. We chose not to cook our pancake breakfast today so we didn't have to clean the pots again. The weather was beautiful and the boys had fun swimmnig. Some swam out to the island in the lake and a couple raced them out in canoes.We loaded the canoes...
Got to admit I didn’t know there were caves to explore so close to home, close to Toronto, near Peterborough, Ontario. This is a hike organized by Lucy of the Bruce Trail Conservancy. She did an awful lot of preparation for this hike checking out the conditions of the trail and the caves and the driving directions a week ahead of time. Checking the internet, I found that these caves are very...
Drove to Tammy's work and picked up a coffee
This is a relaxing "out and back" ride between the western edge of Peterborough and the Town of Lakefield (north of the City) on a combination of the Trans Canada Trail, Rotary Greenway Trail (rail trail) and City streets. It follows Jackson Creek to Jackson Park in the centre of Peterborough then picks up the Otonabee River and Trent Severn Waterway. Along the way you will pass through Jackson Park, a portion...
A trip with OHOC to Sandbanks
Dirt biking in the hills west of Fairmont, BC
The full trip report is here.
2 man journey into Sunbeam Lake. With 40lbs of gear strapped to our backs and an ultra-light canoe we battled the rain and set up our fort on a large rock in Sunbeam Lake. Early forecasts showed nothing but sun and low winds. We got the low winds part, but were rained on each and every day with the way in and way out being the wettest. We did run into some...
This summit received it's politically incorrect name from its resemblance to a breast with a large summit "nipple" when viewed from the Trans-Canada Highway. If you dislike this bushwhacking you will hate this summit. It may be tempting to park in Harvey Heights and save yourself a half kilometer at the start, the residents of the area have a reputation for not taking kindly to people parking on their streets. With that in...
We biked the first 11 km, camped at Kinney Lake, then continued on up past Berg Lake to Adolphus Lake the next day.
Mount Arethusa is a deceptively difficult peak in the Highwood Pass area, just south of Kananaskis. While not one of the highest peaks in the area, it is one of the more difficult to summit. The route is exposed with some difficult scrambling and should not be attempted by those without proper equipment and the skills to return safely. The route starts on an obvious pullout on Highway 40 about 1.3km south of...
TRCA Site 53 Fall Survey - Terrestrial Monitoring program to record evidenceof various plant and animal species.
