August 2001 - Welcome

This is the first time the boys and I went in from Opeongo. Previously we always started from Canoe Lake.

We thought we might get away from the crowds by going further east. Surprisingly 5 kM portages don't seem to bother people (perhaps they don't realize what they are getting into until it's too late.

In our case the longest total portage was 5.8 kM done in 4 hops, with one being 2.8 kM in length.

Unfortunately we still require double carries, so 5.8 becomes 17.4 kM. For me that essentually means carry the canoe, walk back and get the main pack. ...at least it's good exercise.

Our objective is to get away from the hussle & bussle, and enjoy nature.

This year I also took in a camcorder. I just need to find time to post some of the highlights.
