Exploring The Massasauga Provincial park

The Massasaugua Provincial Park is a water-access only park with two main entry points, Pete's Place in the south and Three Legged Lake in the north. Our 4 day paddle begins and ends at the Three Legged Lake access point. We completed a circular route of about 40 km. passing through Spider Lake, Georgian Bay, Clear Lake and back through Spider Lake.

I was looking forward to this video coming and was not disappointed, that reflective shot over Clear Lake was just so good. Thanks heaps for sharing👍👍

[@TheOneCanoe]

Thanks Paul. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@mattvaandering]

Thanks for this great look into the massassauga. It's great to know about the cell service...an often overlooked point that can be a real help to us novice paddlers. All the best Wayne!

[@TheOneCanoe]

Hey Matt, thanks for watching.

[@billygoatfilms7531]

Great video as always, really enjoyed the trip.

[@TheOneCanoe]

Thanks

Enjoyable video. But my understanding is that a pilot program is in place for this year by moving to a flat fee per night. Temagami is included putting camping for any group under 4 people a bit unlikely. Solo camping/canoeing would be extremely expensive at about $32.50 per night before taxes. The flat fee will discourage solo and couples from using the park. One has to ask why such a policy would be developed when larger groups are a greater impact issue on the backcountry.

Great Video, I want to go there at summer time so hopefully lockdown ends by then

[@TheOneCanoe]

Yes, we are all hoping for a 'normal' summer!

[@donalddakota8069]

Thanks Wayne, I really enjoyed this! Nice filming the sights and sounds, great narration too. Not very remote like Temagami or Quetico but sure is beautiful. Take care.

[@TheOneCanoe]

No, not as remote, but very pretty area, and easy to get to.

Your right! Massasaugua Prov Park is a great place & was my first introduction to back country prov park camping They have really upgraded the camp sites over the last 25 years. However they have also greatly upgraded the camping fees & have priced me out of the place for any extended stay. Nice video & thanks for the reminder of the beauty there. Stay Safe Brian 80

[@TheOneCanoe]

Hey Brian, thanks for watching. Yes, unfortunately they have gone to a higher fee structure making it more costly for solo paddlers and small groups.

[@RyanSaundercook]

Quality video. I think this will be my first solo camp when I get the new pack boat.

[@TheOneCanoe]

Hey Ryan, thanks for watching. Yes, this would be a great solo destination!

[@victorziebenhaus3229]

Expensive spot for Solo paddlers with the parks new rate change!

[@ProdigiousReturn]

What kind of stove was that at 13:15? It looked like a stainless steel butane stove? I’ve never seen anything like that before.

[@TheOneCanoe]

Yes, it is a compact, stainless steel butane stove made by GasOne. I did a review on that particular stove. Here is the link to that review: czcams.com/video/mwwlGfxPBgQ/video.html

[@victorziebenhaus3229]

How about the ridiculous price increase for reservations now? A pilot run for potentially all park interior rates. How can Ontario parks charge the same for a soloist or a group of 9 makes no sense and is ridiculous!
