What I Ate on the La Cloche Trail

A long time ago, I had set a goal for myself to hike the La Cloche Trail in Killarney. One of my outdoor friends, Marian from The Camping Family, was going to hike this trail again for what would be her 8th time and had asked me to join her, which was just the motivation that I needed so I jumped at the chance and said yes. There was lots of planning and talking about gear, food and other logistics from to take care of, but I am not going to get into details about the actual trip as I had shared photos on my Instagram page, so this post is about what I actually planned for my food for the 7 day 6 night trip.

Brent to Opeongo Meanest Link

Last year my friend Peter and I completed a section of The Meanest Link from Opeongo to Oxtongue. Almost a year later were back to complete the Brent to Opeongo section which covers 80km with 16km of that being portages – a total of 26! Our plan was to complete the trip in two days and one night.

Trent River Day Trip

One very beautiful Saturday morning we headed to Frankford to paddle on the Trent River. The river is part of the Trent River Watershed and contains a series of locks that go from Trenton all the way to Port Severn and Georgian Bay. We were not paddling that big of a distance, however we have really been wanting to get out and explore this river system.

I have some plans to complete a couple of big hikes this summer, so I’m currently in focused on getting some kilometers hiked while carrying some weight in a backpack. To that end, I recently headed out for my first long hike of the year.
