Itinerary:

OK, so this is kind of last minute, but what the heck! Join me for a beautiful long weekend in Frontenac. We'll get the chance to see the spring flowers blooming, birds migrating, and if we're lucky we'll come across some of the 38 species of mammals that call Frontenac home.

The terrain will be rugged in sections, and we'll be travelling 10 to 15 km a day, moving at a pace of 3.5 to 4 km/h, depending on the terrain. We'll start with the Big Salmon Lake trail and follow the lakes around the perimeter of the park.

This trip is designed for experienced backpackers.

Spring time can bring many surprises, so we'll need to be prepared for drastic changes in weather and expect the unexpected!

This trip will require vacation time to be taken on Easter Monday.
