I have wandered the wilderness for as long as memory serves. It is a place of great mystery and wonderment. This Blog will help me to share some of the many lessons I have learned while wandering and paddling the forests and lakes I call home.

We are in trouble! Day two in Algonquin Park
Liam and I embark on our second day of paddling. We had no idea of the trouble we were about to face.
The low water level on the Crow River forced us to abandon the thought of actually canoeing.
We had to embrace the reality that we were going to have to walk several kilometers before gaining paddle depth water.
That is the beauty of a canoe trip; you never know what is around the next bend.

The park system should of you what the condition were.
ReplyDeleteI was aware of potential low water so I called the park's office and they informed me that the levels were navigable. I just didn't think they meant by foot. It was a great trip because of the many challenges we faced. You're right, when in doubt, always make a call to the park to get as much information as possible. I always add a couple of days to any trip just in case things get messed up.
