    Canada>Ontario>Algonquin>EGL Canoe Hang - September 2017

    Canada>Ontario>Algonquin>EGL Canoe Hang - Algonquin - September 29 - Oct 1, 2017

    Hi Gang,

    This spring's two part trip seemed so well received that maybe we should attempt another. Hopefully we'll catch the Algonquin's Autumn colours at their peak, although it'll be hard to be Pen from a couple years back.


    • The main event (Sept 29-Oct 1) -Red: The Weekend Hang on Ragged Lake. Which site exactly is tbd.
    • The optional event (Sept 25'ish - Sept 29) - Blue: The Loop from Smoke>Tanamakoon>Cache>Head>Harness>Louisa>North Grace>McGarvey>Big Porcupine>Ragged as suggested by Bubba. A side trip to the old growth forest on Dividing Lake at the lower part of the map, and a shortened route across the middle have been marked by dotted lines. We already have some interest in this.


    There's a Google Sheets sign-up form here. It'd be nice to know who's coming and how many sites we'd need. I'm hoping we make this a classic gourmet trip and come up with some fantastic backcountry cuisine that'll be the envy of the park. Even the bear's will have to wear bowties if they expect to share.

    Note: For those anglers in the group, the end of September marks the end of trout season in Algonquin, and most of southern Ontario for that matter.
