Solo Canoe Trip in Temagami | Part 1 | The Scramble | Camping in Ontario

[@paulabildson157]

Amazing job of thinking on the fly, coming up with an alternate plan, and also trying to work through the problems in order to stick to your original plan (nice road clearing skills and I certainly would have turned around at the sink hole too) is very commendable Christina. You're such a great mentor to women wanting to get outside, explore, and conquer some fears. Wonderful start to another trip in Temagami.

I spent a number of summers on lake Temagami during my teen years so I love seeing your video of the area. Looking forward to the series.

[@TheBoppa23]

always a peaceful (yet bug-filled) journey by our lovely hostess. Thank you!

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you

[@ALORDW]

I love how you leave the part two link in your description! I always look for it now. Thank you!

[@CamperChristina]

Check for parts three and four and the descriptions of the others as well LOL they are also at the end of the video. I figure if you want to watch all of them at once why would I stop you? Lol. Cheers

[@gtarcheryandoutdoors4567]

Thank You Christina ! You make really good videos and no matter what you are up against you stay positive. I like that very much.

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you. Cheers ! 😊

[@lauriewright388]

You sounded upset that you couldn’t get through the road initially! But fair play to you for thinking on your feet and finding your falls location.....Fortune favours the brave Christina👌👏👏👏Best wishes from 🇬🇧 uk

[@CamperChristina]

Lol thanks. I did end up doing that loop over Canada day weekend. It’ll be up in a few weeks. Best wishes to you as well. Cheers !

[@looking4leasuretime]

Really like the opening idea included in preplanning, walking and cleaning the vehicle trail.

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you !!

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Wow that was some access road! Glad you made it to the lake, looking forward to part 2 :)

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you. Cheers !

[@brianj9635]

Hiya Camper Christina! Great to see you out in Temagami again. Thanks for posting these trips the way you do. Your mix of scenery shots and information you convey through commentary really gives us the feeling of being there, from wherever we are. thanks CC!!!

[@CamperChristina]

Awe thank you Brian. Cheers

[@TobyClipperton]

First off, I love myself a good waterfall, second we have the same coleman stove, and last I can't wait for part 2!!

[@CamperChristina]

When I make a series you can usually watch all of the parts at the same time. Check the description or the end of the video for the next link.

[@CamperChristina]

Total Camper also you would’ve loved my day on Thursday in Temagami. I think my day included like 5 of them ending with the campsite at talking falls. So pretty! Cheers !

[@CamperChristina]

[@chrisschell90]

Love these trip videos.

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you

[@OntarioHikingTrails]

I am finding that looking for good camp sites on crown land is very time consuming but watching your video helps for when I visit.

[@michellemazerolle8304]

I know it wasn't what the trip you had hoped for but great job coming up with a new route and making the best of things! Excited to see part 2!

[@CamperChristina]

If you watch the very end of the video you might see the link to the next part and so on and so on LOL thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers!

[@lisasheehanshaw7360]

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you

[@surrebua]

To bad that your plan A did not work out, but a wise decision to not cross that sinkhole Christina!👍 I think your plan B workin out good so far, so cant wait to see the rest.....👍😉

[@CamperChristina]

Thank you! Just a note you can always find the next part of my video in the description below or at the end of the video. Cheers! Hope you enjoy the rest of the series.

[@tribalstrail9315]

Very nice

[@suezaple4950]

I just run the wheels along the edge , on roads like that, always good to have your trimmers and saw Eh. that sink hole is crazy., Simply beautiful view at the falls, oh my Id love that. 2nd camp nicer still.

[@CamperChristina]

Um yeah not taking a chance out there. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers. 😊

[@KUEHLKUEST]

You do LOVE a challenge...your new name...Christina the Adventurer....but....there is always the beautiful water feature or lake at the end of the obstacles!

[@CamperChristina]

Lol. Wait til you see the actual twinkle lake loop videos. Ha!!! I got my ass kicked!! Lmao. But always worth it. Thanks for watching. Cheers !

[@TapioBlue]

I've motorbiked into Twinkle Lakes and it's a rough trail even on a bike! Lower Goose Falls can be a popular spot, often with an "ATV gang" camping out there. There's always the big sandbar down below. If you stay right past the falls you can pretty much drive to Upper Goose Falls.It's 8 km up the road to the turn off , follow that for about a km with the last few hundred meters turning into an ATV trail. There is a sand cliff so you can't get to the falls but it's very scenic. Also a good campsite just a little further up the road on the Sturgeon River. The road gets overgrown after that but goes all the way to Capreol.

[@CamperChristina]

Janne Blom thanks for all the great information. The road is actually getting much better as it is the road being used to haul out all the trees from solace 😢😢😢.

[@dwaynebarill3898]

Thanks for sharing

[@CamperChristina]

Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment. Cheers

[@FreakofNature1]

Sorry your route didn't work out! that road look uninviting... Nice PFD I get the impression you like green ;)

[@CamperChristina]

Lol. Thank you

[@schultzoutdoors8799]

That's too bad that you couldn't get to Twinkle Lake. Doesn't look like anybody will until that sinkhole gets fixed if it even can. Maybe in the future you can try to access Talking Falls by going through Solace Provincial Park. That was always my plan.

[@CamperChristina]

Hey Dan. I’m not sure if it’s in part one or part two but there’s more information on that. I’m actually just driving home from doing that loop! Cheers! Thanks for watching

[@benbelman6984]

I'm curious what mapping system you use to find portages and camping sites on crown land. I've been using GAIA but doesn't show much up there.

[@CamperChristina]

This area has a large planning map that is made by the friends of Temagami. If you go to my website at CamperChristina.com on the maps and resources page it’s on the first link in the list I think. It has all the information. I also use a GPS (google maps ) on my phone and I have an old Jeff’s map that is no longer downloadable or transferrable that shows me stuff on my phone as well. So I use all three of those in combination. for the next two Temagami trips, the real twinkle lake loop and the one I just did to Florence lake i’ve also been using Maps from ottertooth.com. Cheers !

[@benbelman6984]

@@CamperChristina Thank You

[@RodMurray]

I think I recognize your tent as a Marmot brand. Can you describe it, model, size and features and perhaps a few comments on its best, and worst features? Your comments would be appreciated. Thx! Keep paddling!

[@CamperChristina]

Hi there! It’s a Eureka suma 2. You can find a link to the model, a description and some feedback on it on my website at CamperChristina.com.on the gear tab. Thanks for watching. Cheers

[@RodMurray]

@@CamperChristina Will check out your equipment on the website. Interested in the Marmot that you mentioned too

[@CamperChristina]

All are there. Cheers ! Sorry just saw you said marmot. Lol. Tungsten 2p. Lol. Sorry was out camping. Cheers.

Plot twist, CC purchases a Jeep and starts over landing adventures.

Ummm lol not likely. Lol. Cheers

[@fatpeej]

Christina, what date did you leave on?

[@CamperChristina]

June 8th. May I ask why ?

[@fatpeej]

@@CamperChristina Because it looked so bloody cold! I guess it's quite a contrast in weather to the Southern Ontario muggy heatwave we've been having. Plus, I am always curious what time of year something is recorded to relate it back to my own tripping. I plan to hit Wasaksina at the end of the summer. :)

[@fatpeej]

Thanks for sharing btw!

[@CamperChristina]

Makes sense. We have had a few heatwaves here since that trip. It wasn’t cold though. It was pretty decent temps that trip for the most part. You would’ve seen me in my toque otherwise. Lol. I barely slept in my sleeping bag this trip also and that’s not normal for me. Hope that helps. Cheers
