Itinerary:

We will drive up to Frontenac Provincial Park Friday evening and camp nearby so that we can get an early start Saturday morning!

The park should be quiet and beautiful this time of year! The following is a description from the Friends of Frontenac site: This loop is located in the most rugged part of the Park. The trail crosses Labelle Gorge and passes a series of waterfalls which drop 16 metres from Slide Lake to Buck Lake. This loop features an excellent view of Mink and Camel Lakes and the ridge and trough landscape of this area of the Park.

The total distance covered will be approx. 24k.

We will snowshoe to our campsite and set up a winter camp. The next morning we will complete the loop and return to Toronto.

Participants should all have backcountry camping and backpacking experience. Snowshoeing experience is also required, as we will be travelling on snowshoes weather permitting.

Participants will be required to supply their own equipment i.e. backpacks and be comfortable carrying over 40lbs of weight.
