    Canada->Ontario->EGL->Ontario Winter 2017-2018 Backcountry Hang

    EGL Winter 2017-2018



    Hey all.

    I was cleaning out my camping closet and almost got dinged in the head by a pair of snowshoes. That's as good a sign as any to get the ball rolling on our winter hang.

    I'd love to hear some ideas from all of you as to where you'd like to camp. I was for a venue that only required a short walk in and that might have some fishing opportunities. A few years ago Quiet and I overnighted at Silent Lake PP and that fit the bill; short stroll and trout.

    Where: Let's hear some ideas.......

    When: January 26-28


    P.S. We should double check 76 Highboy's spot as he seems to be a bear-den hound.

    I've been sorta slow to gather winter wear and equipment, guess im holding out for the more costly items (buy once, cry once) for items that matter to me. So as long as temps are within my range the date,location and theme work for me so far as i can tell. Was there many moons ago during summer.

    Silent Lake would great with me. It's not too far from Kingston at all. Bought some canvas duffles for the toboggan today and I'm just itching for it to snow.

    I don't mind Silent Lake. Never been there and a short stroll and trout sounds good to me.

    I'd like to join but think I'm going to struggle with the dates. If only the world revolved around me.

    I book something one weekend a month and it just so happens the last two hangs fall on the same weekend. What are the odds. Have fun. Stay warm.

    I'm fine with throwing in an alternative date of Feb 2-4, if that helps anyone. I'm easy going.
