    Horse Camping Know-how

    Wow...this stuff opens a whole new round of possibilities. I had a colleague who owned quarter horses and use to "horse" camp. I've never done that - still trying to perfect what I do now.:)

    Anyone use a sleeping pad?

    I've learned that brands will have different components and will react differently. Even with the self inflating ones a little extra air helps. I usually leave mine out with the cap off, add a few poofs and it is fine. You are right about storage - sleeping bags are the same - they need to be...

    New government in this neck of the woods. I wonder if the new Prime Minister elect is a canoeist like his father was. He was an expert.

    Anyone use a sleeping pad?

    :thumbsup: Alas - I've come up in the world and now use a pad, a full cot or a ground cot - whatever I think best. I use a ground cot when I'm tripping and then again sometimes I use a simple pad just to reduce the weight. Here are the items that I have in my inventory. [Though I do have three...

    Are there wolves where you live?

    Some quick research from the Ministry tells me that there are from 85,000 to 105,000 black bears; the 2nd largest bear population in North America. It sort of makes the wolf statistic a bit lean.

    Are there wolves where you live?

    Wolves really haven't been a problem though there are 9,000 wolves and coyotes in the Province. The species of wolf would include Great Lakes Boreal, Easter and Grey. What has become a concern is the black bear situation.

    Bannock on a Stick

    Right on - it's great isn't it? Then...maybe...just a pinch of cinnamon. I don't use butter - though I think I'm going to try that. :happy:

    Anyone use a sleeping pad?

    I did that once (and only once). Oh...sorry...twice...I had to make a bed during one of the courses that I took. On the one occasion I brought a sleeping bag insert and filled it with pine branches and leaves. It wasn't bad accept that it took a fair chunk of time to fill it. It also occurred...
