Last fall at the Zaleski Backpack Trail in SE Ohio:



Shimmying across this log with packs and a dog wasn't fun:

Nice! I'm jealous. Ohio sucks for backpacking.

I take my annual solo up to the back country of Algonquin Park usually in late May or early June. This years trip was late May and the access point I had chosen had a washed out road, I kept hoping that it would be fixed and open in time but had to change my plans shortly before heading up. I ended up going in through access point #3, a spot I have been in through a few times and because of the late adjustment in booking, I had to stay on the same lake for all 3 nights.

Here are the shots from this years trip, from way back in May

Waiting for the MEC store in Barrie to open to grab some rope.

Welcome to the thread JB!



Thanks


You have some gorgeous pictures!

I try to get out at least twice a year. This year, went out 4 times, once every month this summer, plus September. Now that my parents have their camper, they will be out more often, and consequently, so will I.


Went to Holly Rec in Michigan, then East Harbor, Mohican, and Indian Lake in Ohio. Didn't get up to Kelleys Island this year, which somewhat bums me out, but we plan to get up there once or twice next summer/fall.

Mohican was probably one of the best times. Set up our tent about 10 ft from the river and fell asleep to soothing water sounds every night. Would be hot during the day, but around 9pm, cooled down to 65 degrees, perfect sleeping weather. We were in a mountain valley, so we'd have fog in the morning. Tons of gorgeous scenery, and had the river not been at flood stage, we could have canoed right to our campsite.

Were you at Mohican Wilderness? We camp there with our scout troop every year.

No we were at Smith's on Wally Road. First time going to there. Way back when I was in 5th grade, my school always camped at Mohican Wilderness though. 5th graders camped there for 3 days/2 nights and 6th graders did 4 days/3 nights somewhere just outside of Erie, PA.

It was nice, right on the river and tucked into a valley. I wish it hadn't been so humid, because it made wanting to explore hell, but overnight was gorgeous.
