The only Park that I camp in is Algonquin - it's huge and you can get away from people when canoeing in the backcountry.

...it all sounds fascinating and great fun. My endeavours are principally canoe/camping at which time I use a multitude of skills and experiences. Trips are planned for the summer months. The first of April I'll be away for a weekend jaunt with our Scouting group - sort of kicks off the...

Right on! Not only is it a fabulous game it is in fact the national sport of Canada. Strange? They didn't seem to have on all that equipment one uses today. Can you imagine doing this?

...now that's great stuff.

@jc banks glad you found it helpful. When you camp in parks and the like there are better opportunities to protect yourself. When you are in the wilderness it is a different story - there are no buildings to escape to. More than that the environment is against you.

2sweed had made a casual comment in passing that got me thinking. :( And yes I thought about a bit of a series but restrained myself in hopes that others would jump up and volunteer. I suppose I could start - One of the great North American legacies that we attribute to our native people is...

...so happy to see that [I mean the bear in the pack], I always have a Baden Bear with me - big, small or huge - I've got to have a (Teddy) bear with me.

...the only time I can out run a dog is when something is chasing me because there "ain't" no human with me. :bag:

Time for Spring Training! Two great sites [please list others that you have enjoyed] :peeking: Darren's Outdoor Page - Canoe Trip Equipment List :peeking: Backcountry Canoe Tripping Equipment - Algonquin Park Both these sites are practical, sensible and true to the spirit of canoe tripping...

JOSHPOSH - is that really you?

I don't care what anyone says - "Today begins SUMMER!

o...kay. Depending on the age I would have a Friday, Saturday night outing preferably close by. So...what do children hate most? :sour: Outhouses would be one of those. I take time to acquaint them with these devices. I clean them like crazy because this is one of the yucky things that turn...
