Welcome aloft Jim. You took some very nice shots. KHPP is a park I'd like to explore more.
Cheers,

A good time was had by all.

I did a loop through Canoe, Sunbeam and Burnt Island in Algonquin on 04-08 July and the squitos were the worst I'd seen in a while. Last year I had none get into my Superior hammock, but this year,...
I'm interested.

The day started out promising when we left Chicamoula the morning of May 16 towards Big Trout Lake. It was cool and overcast, just the type of weather I like when there are kilometres to be paddled...
Just made my reservation.
McIntosh: 13, 14, 15
Big Trout: 16, 17
Burnt Island: 18, 19
Looking forward to seeing peeps again. Stay safe.
Is the plan to stay on MacIntosh the entire trip?
Count me in. Potato and carrot will be in KWK's barrel. :)

Trip Report:
Day 1: Sunday, May 14, 2017
I drove to Algonquin Park from Toronto which took about 4.5 hours including a stop for gas and a visit to the MEC in Barrie on the way up. I had to buy a...
18 Days to go...
Time booked off work? Check!
Food Dehydrated? Not yet!
Gear Inventoried and Laid out? Still in storage!
10 Lbs of body fat obliterated? Not happening!
Solo Canoe? Needs yoke...
My thoughts and condolences go out to you and you family Paul. Take care.

Sandals for wet entry/exit/portages; wool socks added for cold water or mosquitos.
Trail runners for camp or light hiking boots if the weather forecast includes rain or is unknown; this trip will...
I’m in for the long haul.
I’ll be self contained; small wood/alcohol stove for dehydrated meals, solo canoe, small axe, small saw.
Bubba, you look awesome!
Having said that, PLEASE don't flip your kilt up at me. ROTFL
In a word: Amazing!
Easy to set up and the tarp and hammock fit perfectly. The hammock was easy to set to the right angle the first time.
I did notice the stand whistling a bit when the wind...

Someone was listening to you Crazyton3! It arrived on Friday and there was no taxes or duty or UPS fees of any sort.
Here's a pic of it the next day inside Algonquin Park (Ralph Bice Lake).

I got the notice today from UPS that it will be here (hopefully) on Friday. Wonder what UPS will charge for taxes/duties/brokerage fee... GULP!

I can't get out of work on the 14th, but would like to come up on the 15th; even if only for 1 night. It's been a while since I hung around with you folks. :) So, is it Ralph Bice?
Beautiful pictures Bonnet! Looks like a great time had by all.
I wish I could make it, but my daughter is spending the week and that weekend with me. She’ll be flying in from Nepal where she was working the last 6 months.
I’ve camped on Rain a number of...
Touché
Hmm...
You're the MAN, Tato! I just pledged for the camping stand. Thank you.
I'm not usually one to impose on others; even friends. Of course that's assuming I have friends (on either side of the lake). :)
It's too bad it only ships to the US...
Thanks Lofty, much appreciated.
I'm bringing the Smokehouse; my old bones need the warmth to relax at night.
Really looking forward to this; haven't had a chance to get away this winter. ...
I'm in for Saturday to Saturday. I'll need breadcrumbs to follow. Preferably to where you guys will be camped.
shhh... shop softly and carry a big credit card... you're giving away our master plan for world domination of Dutch gear... (bwahahahahaha!!)
I ordered a Primus stove in April. It shipped 2 days after order with an email notice and tracking number. It arrived with no issues and regular timeframe to Canada.
I'm going to be northeast of you at the same time; heading into Allen Lake via access 25.
Here's a picture of our campsite on McCraney Lake last weekend; just south of where you're going.
...
Is there room for one more? I'm in for Friday to Sunday (2 nights) and can get my own permit if need be.

Had a good time. Great group of guys. Here's some photos, despite my camera acting up.
Ready to head out:

You can't go wrong with a Smokehouse in any configuration. Smokehouse is great to deal with and he can tell you what would suit your needs. I went with the extra length for a bridge hammock and...
I missed our special guest, but I’m not questioning why… (sorry, inside joke for those who were not there)
I had a great time again, catching up with old friends and getting to know new people. ...
Yes Sir! :) I've had the SmokeHouse set up to check out, but have not used it yet. This will be the first time testing it with a woodstove and hammock.
Room for one more? I was hoping to get Friday off work, but it's not going to happen, so I will be there around noon on Saturday.
I'm in if it's the 20th. Can't make the 27th. KHPP would be my choice. Never been there and it's closer for any of the Ottawa/Quebec hangers who might want to come.
I wish I could make it, but both weekends are booked. Too bad; it's been years since I've been to Killarney. Have a great time and take lots of pictures.

I can make it for Saturday, but still waiting to hear from my boss about getting Friday off. I won't find out until after next week when he gets back. I'm in for the group meal Saturday and Friday...
