well, the last couple weeks I have been dying to go to algonquin so I was just searching for sites and came across this one.


the first trip log that I read was the 22 day trip log from Mark. wow!!!!!!!
this seems like a really great site.

a bit about myself.....

I have been going to algonquin 2-3 times for the past couple of years, usually with 3 canoes and six people.
we do not travel light but think it is worth it in the long run with the extra food and beer.

our last trip was to booth lake in september, we only stayed 4 nights but it was great.... we also got a chance to have a look inside tatler cabin(i think thats what it was called)it was a 5 mile paddle from the camp site we were at.

I think I am now becoming addicted to this past time and will have to start winter camping soon

Hi Edge,

just takes a bit getting used too. Even Barbara logs in as anonymous sometimes.
She is a long time personality here. So it happens to all of us. You'll figure it out.

There are even longer triplogs here. Jeffrey McMurtire, we call him the 'Map Master' 'round here, has a 28 day triplog somewhere, and I think he is working on another 31 day log as well. Lots to explore! Welcome to AA!(no we are not re-formed alcoholics either!) heh happy.gif

Haha, thanks Mark! I have a 19 day log here: homepage.mac.com/canoecamping/19_Days_in_Algonquin_Park/ but haven't finished my 28 or 31 day logs sad.gif. I'll get to them after I'm done the new version of the map (soon!) - I promise! Welcome to AA Edge!

Welcome to the site Edge... I am sure you will get a lot of information from this site. Feel free to ask questions because there is always someone around to answer them. Barry has put a lot of effort into getting this site up and running and it is the people who love Algonquin that keep it going.

Hi Edge

You're edgy, not twitchy, right? wink.gif

Yeah, I've been having a few problems of late keeping my name attached to my posts, too. It seems to happen most when I do a "preview" of the post.

Yup, I've been here on AA a while now. Probably about 6 1/2 years!

This is a super group of people. Very helpful, friendly and at times....strange. LOL

And Barry, the webmaster/zookeeper, has done an amazing job at creating AA and keeping it running for all this time.




Barbara

let's see how this works out...no preview, my name is in the box up there....
