Each year, whether we do a big trip or not, Dan and I along with any other family and friends we can coerce head up to Algonquin Park for a backcountry experience. This involves packing up gear and food to last the 4-6 days, and head into the park. We take our canoe and portage several lakes (usually) to get to our destination lake, find a campsite and set up to enjoy the serenity for a few days.

No cars, no stores, no motor boats, no data service or wifi. Just the sounds of the loons, owls or wolves to sing us to sleep. Canadian living “unplugged”! Hope you enjoy the story of our short adventure!
