I would like to park my vehicle at Canoe Lake or Lake Opeongo access points, and be picked up by a shuttle and dropped off at Tim River or Kiosk (1 adult, 1 pack, 1 canoe). Does anyone know of any companies offering this type of shuttle for 2025? 

I have searched the websites of various outfitters, but I don't see this exact service listed.

Thanks for another great report! Looks like a beautiful lake and well worth the effort to get there.

I haven't been there myself, but a friend did a solo trip there end of May 2023. He said it is a small but gorgeous site. I also remember seeing Kev Wild's video a couple years ago where he camps at the site one night. It does not appear to be huge from what I could tell.

Can someone please confirm if 45.7208776. -77.7886913 are the approximate GPS coordinates where you can normally park during winter?

Thanks Bampot... I remember some time ago you were considering a snowshoeing trip this winter. Have you a particular area in mind?

Yes, I would like to do at least a couple of trips this winter. Once there is more snow, I plan to do the ~20km loop on the Highland Trail over two days. 

This area looks intriguing for my second trip. I have a 4WD vehicle. However, I'm not sure if this area would still be accessible when there is more snow?

I use it with Google Chrome. However, I have to manually toggle it off and on again before making my search selections on the Ontario Parks Reservations page.

Interesting, thanks for the info. Do you have any campsite recommendations on Radiant for early June?

Thank you both for the information. I'm confused how people are allowed to camp off permit with trailers near this lake? Are these informal camps used by logging operations? Or Algonquins using the area who don't require permits?

I haven't been to Radiant Lake before. I tried booking the lake last summer and early fall but saw that it was fully or nearly booked every date I looked at.

Fascinating! They mention that it was found "sixteen kilometres south east of Kiosk". However, as the crow flies from Kiosk I calculate that it would only be between 5.5 and 7.8 km to land in the range between Whitebirch and Mink.
