#######-------PAYMENT---------

(Important, read this section)

To ensure that we get paddlers that are eager and able to attend the trip I have decided to collect the park fees up front. This $27.40( Incl processing fee) is your confirmation into this trip.

All other costs (Boats, transportation, food, gear etc..) are your responsibility.

I understand not everyone wants to use their credit card online which is why I’m offering both a Paypal option as well as an interac transfer option. Paypal will cost about $1.05 to process and Interact is $1.25 if my memory serves correct. Links are below:

Paypal
Simply pay during your RSVP and it will go to the groups Paypal account.

Interact E-Mail Transfer: Send $27.40 – it will cost you $1.25 to send the money. Send to: adventureswithken (at) hotmail (dot) com

#######-------GEAR---------

Make sure that you are well setup for portaging. Pack gear into large backpacks or barrels to make moving it faster & easier. You should be able to portage your boat & gear in a maximum of 2 trips down the trail. If we all plan for a single carry portage it will make our days much shorter. So please plan accordingly.

Boats:
Canoes only – this trip is not suitable for kayaks of any kind.
If you are renting, please pick up your boat, or have it delivered to the access point on Thursday night because we will be launching promptly at 9am on Friday morning (You can simply join us at the site on sat morning if you'd prefer.

Food:
Each person is responsible for their own food & cooking gear (Lightweight Stove, pots, utensils etc…)
Coolers are great for the car and parking lot, but please don’t bring them as part of the trip. If you need some meal suggestions check out the link below:

Water:
We will drink lake water during this trip. Do not plan to carry bottled water beyond a 1L personal bottle that you can refill from the lake. Bring purification tables, a Pristine water purification kit or your preferred method of purification.

Personal Gear: Please see and review the gear list at the link below.

FOOTWEAR:
We had some footwear problems on the last trip (A badly sprained ankle) and some broken sandals that caused it. So please make sure bring 2 types of shoes for the trip, a pair to wear while paddling/portaging that has some ankle support and will get wet during the day and a dry pair for the campsite at night.
