Camping in Algonquin?
My pregnant wife and I are going camping in Algonquin Canada in about a month. We are very excited and this is my first time. Im told we have a 3 hour canoe and a 1 hour hike to get to our campsite.
Could any of you please elaborate on some necessary things to bring with us. It is in early august. We have a good tent, decent sleeping bags, a Kelty 5000 bag that would fit even the kitchen sink(and i get to carry) And a few camping essentials like off.
Also, What types of things should we watch out for in algonquin, what are some sights we should try to see?
Thank You in advance for your answers.
Omg im so jealous of you. I love Algonquin park.
Anyway, you should also consider getting waterproof bags.
such as this one (it’s sorta shaped like a drum)

There are really good to have, to keep your food in just in case it rains, and so no animals will make their way into your food.
also, waterproof matches are key! and you will also want to bring some sort of thick string (like that yellow rope that is pretty cheap) to make your own clothes line to dry out your stuff if it gets wet.
Also, here is a link to the trails and museums located at algonquin.. have a look here for some ideas

The canoe ride will be long, but you’re never short of things to look at I assure you! It will be well worth the effort, and hey you’ll be pretty buff by the time you’re through! I suggest you adventure around after setting up camp in your canoe to see what is around your area.
Have fun! and don’t forget tons of bugspray
