Not to derail this thread but what are the advantages of switching from a sleeping bag to a quilt?
I ese both a Hennessy and an Amok hammock as well as a tent and a quilt seems like sleeping in an unzipped barrel type sleeping bag.
That's what I do - leave the sleeping bag's footbox zipped. If I get cold, I can still use my bag as intended.

No, I don't think anyone has.

I did not appreciate the baby-skull rocks at the Pinetree end of the Fraser-Pinetree port. It's one of those things that could turn from a minor annoyance to a serious problem. Wear good ankle support.

Got a feeling that Dwight's probably been there, too.

We called those "fisher sets". The slots in the sides are to accommodate the springs of a conibear trap.

According to the Park’s ice out history page the earliest recorded ice out was March 29, 2012. Are we going to set a new record this year? Yes or no (I’m saying no, but I could be convinced either way).
If I'm going to guess, I'm going to guess something noteworthy. It will be a new record - March 27th. But I have been known to be a monkey's uncle.

Sorry, no help - just piggy-backing. If said recommendations were to include units that have no more than 2 states of being (i.e., "on" and "off") I would be much obliged.

The forest from St Andrews to Rouge is so open that you could jog through it without ever stepping foot on the rail bed.

Why is that?
As Peek stated.

The port from St. Andrews to Rouge is actually on the old rail bed, so I'm a bit confused by the "CN property" claim.
