    Introducing youth to camping/hiking and related ...

    ...it is a broad question. I've directed summer camps over the years and have been involved in numerous camping/canoe trips. It would be helpful to know ages. To start at the bottom - we can begin to teach "our children" to camp be starting out in the backyard - yep - as simple as that. The...

    Our For-bearers...what we can learn...

    It never occurred to me until @2sweed twigged my thought process.... WOW! Our Native People have got to be the most creative individuals in terms of living on and off the land. No matter where in the world, ancient peoples have wisdom and know how that is as valuable today as in the past...

    Homemade Meatless Sausage For The Trail

    You are so clever @2sweed and if you were closer I would make you head of something or other. :) I still rely heavily on the produced goods - there are so many more choices than ever before. But I have often thought of purchasing a dehydration oven or food processing gizmo or some other such...

    Greetings from Ontario Canada

    Hi - ....we are lucky here - their are only two poisonous snakes in this country and none where I venture. The days are getting longer and the birds have changed their chirping and our weather patterns are definitely getting warmer. There are spring shows, camping shows, RV shows, and flower...

    Are there climbers in the crowd?

    ...that I haven't done - like down hill skiing I've had a tendency to fall - like hard. I posted it to encourage others to share their experience. Climbing is another past moving activity that is gaining popularity in the outdoor circuit.

    All About Camp Fires

    I tried this to see if it really works as well as they say it does - it did. It's called a Swedish Log Fire. I plan to use it more this summer. Some folks cut the log into six pieces, others will cut it in four. [Though I thought the six was best.] You stuff burnable kindling of...

    Anyone use a sleeping pad?

    That is an incredibly a fantastic price. The pad I use for canoe camping cost me $105.00. Some think that was cheap. It's super light though the one at base camp is thicker. When I'm at base camp I have one of those military cots that can take a 500 pounds - BUT I can assure you I'm no where...

    HI ALL! I bet there are some mighty fine trails right in the community where you live. Luv to see em. This is what the City of Hamilton did with the old "THB" [Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo railroad line 1894 to 1987]. It is a beautiful trail that meanders 9.5 km through the City...
