Canoeing Algonquin Park Solo - Daisy Lake - Fall 2023 - Part 1

Even though the forecast for this trip wasn't looking very good, I decided to go anyways. It was only 2 nights and how bad could the weather be? I was so grateful that I had decided to go after all, and had a spectacular time. You just never know what will happen, until you're out there.

Thanks!

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you so much for this. I really appreciate it. Cheers!

[@kristingrounds4163]

I love the sound of rain and thunder!! Great video! The hair cut is cute too!

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you!!!

[@somesmoothjazzplease6285]

As always a true trooper and awesome video! Can't wait to see the new hot tent you're getting.

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you. I actually have the new hot tent and the new stove and have done a one night trip with them. The videos will be up after this series. Hope you enjoy them. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Cheers.

[@jaysway2346]

Some tough rainy conditions but you made the best of it.... Nice portage set-up on the canoe.

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you. Is was a pleasant rain that day. All good. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers

[@WhatsUpWithSheila]

I have camped and filmed but nothing this extensive. I am well aware of how much work it is to film Canoe trips... My. Heads off to you... You, my dear are a trooper.❤ Edit: *hats*

[@CamperChristina]

Hahaha!! I liked heads better. That was funny. Thanks so much for the kind words. I greatly appreciate it. 😊 ** Seems like less extensive is working for you. Where are you located?

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Another great video!

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you. Haven’t heard from you in a while. Hope you are well. 😊

[@littleredcanoe]

OMG! That is SO wet! You can usually walk right out to that dock at the end of the 420 to Daisy! I've never seen it like that!.... well the beaver dam explains it. Those busy beavers!

[@CamperChristina]

Lol. Yes I’ve heard it was quite water logged when I was there. I hope you enjoyed the video. Cheers!

[@littleredcanoe]

@@CamperChristina I haven't been for a few years.. it used to be one of my favourite access points, although I have never stayed on Daisy. Always pushing through to Misty Lake or through Ralph Bice to Queer Lake. Looks like a lovely time!

[@KartsHuseonica]

Excellent filming set-ups, especially on the portages.

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you !!!

[@herr498]

Awesome Video!!

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you !

[@trishaharrison6183]

This is why I love watching you. Even in crappy weather you find positive things to smile about. Must admit it was pretty nice scenery with the tamaracks.Did not like the sound of that loon though, that was really sad sounding. Looking forward to the next video❤️

[@CamperChristina]

Awe that poor loon. I felt so bad for it. Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers !

[@wenren7895]

On this exact day, I was in silent lake first time camping in fall. It was great

[@CamperChristina]

Awesome

[@Karen-dq8nw]

I admire your gumption heading out into that wet. It's one thing when it happens when you're already out, but to go out in it is truly tough stuff! So much beauty though, even in the rain.

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you Karen. I definitely contemplated cancelling this trip several times. Because the temperatures were so decent with the rain and I knew I would have the chance to dry everything before the cold hit, I thought it would be an interesting trip to show with the different temperature ranges, and all of the different types of weather involved. Thanks for the kind words. Cheers

[@camper69]

Looking like a good trip in spite of the rain. I did a day trip to Daisy Lake when on my Eagle Lake (Ralph Bice) to Tim River trip a few years ago. Saw a bear on that 55 meter portage. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your trip.

[@CamperChristina]

Thanks Gary

[@Hatch61]

It looks like a fun adventure so far, even with the rain, and the ghosts. Thanks for bringing us along, be well my friend.

[@CamperChristina]

Thanks hatch! Cheers!

[@Memorex88]

Another great video Christina! You're smiles and editing and showing us on the map where you are all the time 🥰 Never stop!!

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊 I’m waiting for your address to send the stickers. 😊 cheers

[@Suzannejrobinson]

Yayyy Wednesday night just got a whole lot better. 😊 here we goooo, love it.

[@CamperChristina]

Awe thanks !!! 😊😊😊

[@dorispursell48]

Beautiful scenery, tree colors were fantastic. Oh, but what missable weather!

[@CamperChristina]

Honestly, the weather was pretty good considering what I thought it was going to be like. Thankfully, while the rain fell, the temperatures were quite pleasant and I had plenty of time to dry everything before the cold weather came in. The snow was a really nice surprise. Thanks for commenting. Cheers.

[@jeandorsey7991]

Absolutely love the new cut, and the color looks great! Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@CamperChristina]

Awe… thank you !!! Feria 36. It’s my favourite. Lol. But it washes out so fast. Thanks for commenting. 😊😊😊

[@jeandorsey7991]

@@CamperChristina yes, reds are the hardest to stay in, smallest molecules. Black takes forever to wash out. (Old Matrix corrective colorist.) 😉

[@CamperChristina]

I took hairdressing in school and had a license many moons ago as well. Lol. Cheers

[@brianlindsay8690]

the rain was relentless way to go with the setup 👏

[@CamperChristina]

All good. It could always be worse. Thanks for commenting. Cheers

[@suezaple4950]

Wow sloppy start to your trip to Daisy such pretty portgage's the one with the dock was diffrent. loved how the Tamarack's looked against the green of the conifer's and thier reflection in the lake. Cant say I have ever heard a loon cry like that strange . Nice large protected campsite you found and always a great set up . The compact grill is very cool shall have to find me one that fire sure looked comfy cozy. Nice start to your adventure ..

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you sue. 😊😊😊

[@nancymckenna3828]

Great video… loving that length on you!!! 😊😊

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you!!!

[@alexs3447]

you're getting warm Christina

[@CamperChristina]

HahHa don’t get your hopes up. That brookie from May was my biggest and the best of my life… to date. Lol. Hope you enjoyed the video. Cheers !

[@alexs3447]

Have only tried Daisy for lakers and got nothing. Still watching@@CamperChristina

[@danclements1990]

LOVE the video! May I ask which type of headlamp do you have?

[@CamperChristina]

I have an Armytek tiara. Love it. It’s super bright. You can find a link and information on all of the products I use on my trips on my website at camperchristina.com. 😊

[@dwayneb7440]

Have you thought about getting jeff to rig a mount for your yolk so you can leave it attached inside your canoe when not using it? I’ll dm you an idea from someone from another group

[@dwayneb7440]

If I can find it again

[@CamperChristina]

Nope. I don’t have any issues with the yoke. I’m not sure why it needs to be attached inside the canoe? I saw that hack a few months ago but couldn’t figure out the purpose? I don’t whitewater. Wouldn’t I just then have to detach it to set it up for portaging and add another 2 steps to every portage? Detaching then reattaching? I just can’t figure out why I would need that for any reason? I hope you enjoyed the video. Cheers

[@dwayneb7440]

@@CamperChristina k just looked awkward for you. I think it was for the same reason, short portages and not using it. Also think maybe there was some whitewater concerns with the original post.

[@naturelover1284]

gorgeous, invoking longing in me

[@CamperChristina]

Thanks. Sorry, not sorry. Lol.
