The North Boundary Loop
I just got back from the longest canoe trip I've ever done. Ten days, 109km and a couple dozen portages through Killarney Park, just south of Sudbury, in Ontario's Near North. Read the report.

Photos from BC hikes posted
My sweetie and I were recently in BC, visiting friends and doing a little hiking. BC's wilderness is quite mindblowing. I have posted some photos I took. The gallery app is new and still sports its default appearance.
Kiosk trip log posted
I have posted my trip log for a trip I took with Irene a week or so ago. We did a five day loop around the north end of Algonquin Park, starting at the Kiosk access point.
Rideau Lakes Cycle Tour, June 7-8, 2003
A bike journey where the path is marked doesn't lend itself to a typical trip narrative. Or rather the sort of narrative it lends itself to would go sort of like this: I got on the bike in Ottawa. I started pedalling. I turned when they said turn. When I got to Kingston, I stopped. The next day, I got on the bike and came back.
Palmer Rapids trip journal posted
So I'm learning to do whitewater canoeing, with the Ottawa Y Canoe Camping Club. Yes, I may have had my ORCA Flatwater III when I was 18, but out there in the bubbly stuff I'm a rank amateur. Here is my trip report.
Champlain Lookout, 54km
Wearing my new shoes on my new pedals. Will need to do some adjusting. I was so keen on having rigid carbon soles, I thought I'd tighten them as much as I could (all that extra efficiency). On the morning after, I think I can feel my feet again.
Metcalfe 97km
At first, I was tempted to bike around the block a few times to make this an even hundred. That, of course, was on the way out.
