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
and spectacular shoreline vistas.
In 2007 we will explore a different route: Canoe Lake north to Tom
Thompson Lake, with just a few very short portages and enjoy wilderness
camping and hiking along the route. Wildlife viewing and photo
opportunities might include loons, eagles and hawks, beaver, otter,
moose and timber wolves. Fall is a great time to explore the area.
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 0.7 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.
