It’s been a relatively quiet summer; at least as far as any writing goes. I’ve been enjoying tagging along to help hide some paddles for the Paddle in the Park Contest. It’s been a blast! But obviously I haven’t been able to share any info about any trips until after the paddles were found. This… Continue reading Wolf Lake

Albion falls
What a fun place to hang out for the day! Recently one of my friends let me know that she’s never hiked in Hamilton. So Hamilton being so well known as the Waterfall Capital of the world, I figured we had to go to one of it’s popular waterfalls. The hike didn’t disappoint! Although we… Continue reading Albion falls
Murphy’s Law
It’s always good to be prepared. Not necessarily prepared for what could go wrong, but prepared to change your plans. Ever have a trip where everything that can go wrong does? This last trip just didn’t seem to want to happen. It started with the day before the trip when I came down with a… Continue reading Murphy’s Law
Singing in the rain
We had a ton of rain last week! I know that’s kind of dreary for a lot of folks out there but one of my friends had a fabulous idea. Since I’ve been taking a photography class to figure out how to take better pictures it was awesome to go out and take a nice… Continue reading Singing in the rain

I’d seen a lot of trails, but trails just don’t get me out of bed and out the door. That’s… Continue reading Geocaching!Â

I think this post may just be all about the pictures. In my last post I decided to do something different and I featured each campsite I stayed on in a video. The hike to the Crack was so pretty, I’m not sure pictures or a video would do it justice. And besides, it was… Continue reading Hike to the Crack
A week in Killarney
Recently I decided to take the week off work to go to Killarney. I stayed for seven days and six nights. I had two nights on George Lake, two nights on OSA lake, and lastly two nights on Killarney lake with a hike to The Crack! (The Crack deserves a whole post of it’s own!)… Continue reading A week in Killarney
Trail review ~ Scorch Lake Lookout
Scorch Lake is located within Algonquin park. I’d been interested in taking a trip out to this lake for a while now after reading an old blog post about the lookout trail. This trip was more of a challenge than I’d really expected. I knew going in that it would be difficult. The portages alone… Continue reading Trail review ~ Scorch Lake Lookout
My favorite places to hike
I was asked the other day if I knew of any good hiking spots around here. When I replied saying that I would put together a list I had a few messages from people asking if I would share that. So I figured why not publish it here? These are absolutely in no particular order.… Continue reading My favorite places to hike
