The blog will focus primarily on past canoe and bicycle trips. I have tried backpacking a few times, but my preference is canoeing and bicycle touring so I will focus on these only. Backpacking has been ruled out mostly because of occasional back issues and trying to minimize the accumulation of gear. So I stick with day trips for backpacking. The beauty of cycling and canoeing is you don’t have to haul any gear on your back.
I am from the Saskatchewan prairies and consider that the starting point (home base) from which the journeys expand outward. Therefore the blog will cover journeys both through and beyond the prairies. I hope to add more with future journeys to come. Enjoy!
