    Six Day Canoe Camping Trip Killarney Provincial Park Ontario Canada.

    Loved Killarney. We took our scout troop there in July 2010 and it was one of my favorite trips as well. Still have a pic from the top of silver peak as the background on my phone and tablet

    How Easily It Can Go Very Wrong!

    The first video makes me cringe when I see all those people pulling on the downstream side of that canoe. That canoe would have several tons of force from the river on it.

    Alpkit Alipots

    People forget that there is no such thing as free shipping. Alpkit buys in bulk so gets a better price and ships in by container or skid load so saves on shipping costs as well.
