Next weekend, am leaving for a much-needed vacation to the great outdoors, namely my ancestral home in central Ontario. Frostpocket, as it was named humorously by our nearest neighbor (2 miles away), and then ironically by the inhabitants. 100 acres of former Crown land, in Machar Township, outside of the small town, South River.
Part of the time will be spent portaging and canoeing on the rivers, streams and lakes of Algonquin Park.
Algonquin Park (Lake of Two Rivers), Ontario - 5 Day Weather Forecast - Environment Canada Algonquin Park
Here is our planned route:
Orange = regular route
Blue = day tripDay 1: Need early start / easy day.
Parking one car at Access 2 and one at Access 3.
Enter Access 2 - canoe Tim Lake to Rosebary Lake - - campDay 2 & 3: Hardest route - one long portage
Down Tim River to Misty LakeSide Trip - Day 3: Should be interesting - no gear - lunch packs only - back to campsite for dinner - could fish if interested
Misty Lake Loop to Grassy Lake Bog [swampy looking area]
And loop through McIntosh Lake - Timberwolf - Back to MistyDay 4
Out through Petawawa River to Entry Point #3.
