This past winter I had found a link online for the Explore Magazine. They are based out of BC and they were sending out gear boxes throughout the year for a subscription cost. I had caught the tail end of the Winter box, and was very interested in what I saw. 4 times a year they will send out a box full of gear, accompanied by a list of challenges that they post on their Facebook page.

The last time we ventured into this park was for a weekend in 2015 where we went into Wolf Lake then Crab lake. It’s actually hard to believe it’s been almost 2 years since we have gone back.
