Canada > Ont > EGL Spring 2017 - Return of the Voyageurs

[Chard]

Just wondering when the other 'relaxed' hangers heading in.
Also we can start a request list to resupply the voyageurs (though I assume it will mainly be meat and liquid refreshment).

I'll start a Google sheet that people can chime in on; but basically beef, bread, booze, barley beverages and batteries (BBBBBBB&B).

I'm not 100% yet but hoping to head in early Friday. Can't stay for the long weekend so I'd be heading home Sunday morning.

Hey Guys!

So how many ppl have confirmed ? Im pretty last minute it seams, but I might be able to do it, I did the Brent run last year around those dates. its an awesome place to be!

So far I would be solo paddling it and I might bring my dog. Would anybody have issues with a dog being part of the group ?

Hiya bmantheman (nice name)

We've over half a dozen doing the loop so far, and you're welcome to tag along. I don't think having a dog tag along would be an issue and if this EGL hang is anything like any of our previous ones, your pooch will never have dined better!

Hey all. We have had some changes come up at home and wont be able to do the full loop. Hoping to make the Weekend portion tho.

Hey Jayson & Tracy,

I'm sorry to hear that, but I hope you find a way to make it out to Opeongo.

Hi
I am just wondering about the weekend portion of this trip? Would it be May 19th-22nd? What access point? I think I would join for that.

[Chard]

Hi Green Leaf,

You've got the weekend right and it's Access Point 11 at the south end of Opeongo.

19 Days to go... but who is counting?

Time booked off work? Check!
Food Dehydrated? Check!
Gear Inventoried and Laid out? Check!
10 Lbs of body fat obliterated? Check!
Purchase used Solo Canoe?..................... I missed two good deals as they were a bit to far away for me to get to in time. Hopefully something pops up soon or I will be paddling the Grumman.

As you can see I am super anxious about this trip. Come to think of it I normally get anxious about trip all my trips, especially when I start hearing the bird chirping every morning.
