A Winter Backpacking Trip
Sat, Jan 15, 2011 · 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM · Algonquin Provincial Park
A weekend trip to Algonquin. This trip is so I can test some of my new winter gear before embarking on a week long trip with the Adirondack Mountain Club at the end of January. Any one who is interested in joining me is welcome. Participants are expected to be fully self sufficient in winter conditions. There will be no indoor spaces or heat available. Travel will be by snowshoe or boot depending on snow conditions.
The basic plan
Friday night: Drive up an spend the night in Huntsville
Saturday: Drive to the trail head of the Western Uplands Trail and hike until the end of the day. Make camp wherever we are.
Sunday: Hike back to the car and drive home.
