Canoeing ORCKA Flatwater A

admin — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 07:37:05 +0000

I am a certified ORCKA Flatwater Instructor. Here I am testing students: Brayden and Dylan for their Flatwater A certification with ORCKA. We are on the Ausable River, located within the Pinery Provincial Park. The testing is conducted on the section of river between the canoe dock and the canoe rental station. It is an excellent place for lessons and testing and it is sheltered somewhat from the westerly winds.

Solo Canoe Trip 2009 (3 of 3)

admin — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 08:37:08 +0000

This is part 3 of a 3 part video taken on a solo trip I did with my dog Maddy (aka The Goose) to the Algonquin region in Ontario Canada. We did a there-and-back starting at Wendigo Lake and moving South to Clam Shell Lake.
The weather was better than I could have hoped for with lakes of glass for almost the whole trip.
It was a nice relaxing trip and a great way to end the season.
