 This
is a canoe camping trip in Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario,
Canada. Algonquin Park has 1200 miles of canoe routes connected
by well-established portages. The seven-day canoe trip includes
wilderness camping, hiking, historic sites, wildlife viewing, Native
American pictographs and spectacular shoreline vistas. One does
not need to be an expert canoeist, but should have basic skills, and
the physical conditioning to paddle 4-6 hr/day and carry gear and
canoes while portaging up to 1.7 miles in one location. Most
portages are less than 1/4 of a mile. Participants should enjoy the
challenges of wilderness camping, be a team player and be willing to
share duties and help others. Side attractions include the excellent
Alqonquin Visitor Center with its dioramas depicting human and natural
history of the park and the Logging Museum. (Tentative Itinerary)Price of $698 ($75 nonrefundable) includes: Meals, (starting with dinner on day 1 and concluding with dinner on day 6), all canoes, canoe and cooking equipment, packs, permits and camping fees.

To insure a reservation: obtain all registration forms from the leader, complete and return with a $300 deposit by charge or check made payable to ADK Algonquin-06. All but $75 is refundable.
