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.

A trip with actual purpose - I'd be all over that.

I love my Tarptent Scarp II but if I were to get something lighter it would be hard to ignore the Durston X Mid 2. No single walls for me.

Too bad I don't have any good pics to share, because it's my father's name and he's from a town south of the name of the lake that is to it's north. If I'm right, that is.

My Katadyn Pocket lives in its zippered, Cordura case. I enjoy sewing, so I'd have probably whipped one up myself if it hadn't come with one.
