  • What is better than a Fall canoe trip in the Massasauga Provincial Park? A Fall canoe trip with Epic Mom Sue! Sue and I have been trying to plan a trip for quite some time, and we were finally able to make it happen. We wanted to do something simple, but fun, so we booked a site on Conger Lake, where I actually survived my very first solo backcountry camping trip, ever!. We got to see some gorgeous fall colours, eat some amazing food and share a lot of laughs on our adventure. I hope you enjoy this trip as much as we did.

    Fall canoeing is just awesome! No mosquitoes and other bugs, no screaming kids, very few other campers, amazing fall colours, reasonable temperatures...
    I camped in the Massasauga in October, 2016 on Blackstone Harbour. The last few days we did not see any other campers around, we were the only ones. When we finally packed up on October 5, 2016 and paddled to the parking lot, I was quite surprised to see just ONE car in the whole parking lot-mine!

    Nice relaxing trip, short but so what. You guy's had fun, that's what counts. Ever time I see something from that area I think I should do a trip there one day.

    Looks like it was a great time! Makes me really miss fall! I remember that weekend being a beauty! Also, now I'm starving! Lol We are such lazy cooks in the backcountry. We need to up our game. 😆

      Hahah omg those Oreos. I think she said she got them at bulk barn and they were crazy expensive, but so totally worth it. Highly recommended as some kind of a fancy winter camping New Year’s dessert. So many more trips to come !!! Lol. My Killarney trip I just did isn’t up til mid December. Lol. It was a beauty season. Thanks for watching. 😘

    Sue is hilarious! You guys gel really well together, hope you do more trips together. Sorry for all the comments, but I'm catching up on my "homework" after we've been watching everyone's trip videos on the Livingroom TV through AppleTV, so I can't like and comment.

    • @CamperChristina
      @CamperChristina  Před rokem +1

      Thank you so much for taking the time to go to the computer and send comments. I really appreciate it. The first video with the new intro just went up and I’ve already gotten two comments about it. Thanks again! And yes I enjoyed my trip with Sue a lot and I hope to go out with her again. Unfortunately, she has a very busy schedule like a lot of my friends do. But we will figure it out. Cheers!

    Change the name of the canoe lift.... LOL .. I've been doing it that way since 1987. :) It was a chilly for sure on your trip. I was out the following week and had 1C temps. Always still enjoyable when there is such great scenery around! Love seeing your trips.

    Looks like a wonderful trip with some great company, it was very enjoyable to watch. I’m camping myself right now, and it has been between 75F-30F, (24C to -1C), but clear weather, and light winds. Looking forward to your next adventure, be well my friend.

    • @CamperChristina
      @CamperChristina  Před rokem

      Yes it 20 degrees C here today. Great weather. Glad your enjoying it outdoors. 😊

    Another great camping trip! Near as I can tell UV will not affect parasite eggs or spores like tapeworm, giardia or cryptosporidia. A filter would be a better option, especially on an inland lake.

    • @CamperChristina
      @CamperChristina  Před rokem +1

      Hi Kevin. I just want you to know I am not ignoring your comment. I have sent several emails to Larq, but due to the holiday season, they have not been able to respond to me as yet. As soon as I hear back from them I will let you know. Sorry for the delay.

    • @kevinguthrie5495

      @@CamperChristina Thanks for trying to find out. Just FYI I'm happy with my Sawyer Squeeze, recommended by a thru hiker here: czcams.com/video/5-Agdf1aNVE/video.html.

      Hi Kevin. Sorry for the extremely late reply. I just got an email this morning from larq. Apparently my emails had gotten into their spam folder somehow? Here’s their reply. Also I am very happy with this product as well. Cheers!
      The UV-C LED technology inside LARQ has been tested by independent third-party labs and is effective against various germs, including E.coli, Salmonella, Staph, and MSRA. It will not impact heavy metals, chemicals, fluoride or minerals and does not have a filter so the water should be clear to the eye before filling the LARQ Bottle. While we haven't directly tested on Giardia as an organism, UV-C is well documented to be effective against Giardia and other protozoa types of organisms. Based on existing research we estimate it to be 99% effective in Adventure mode. To learn more about how it compares to other products on the market, check out our Technology Page. I hope that helps!

      Thanks Sue. I think I’ve actually been on seven or eight trips this year with other people? I still have a few more to go before the end of the year. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for commenting. Cheers! 😊😊😊

    We definitely don't take enough food on our trips! I can go with dijon mustard on some bratwurst

    • @CamperChristina
      @CamperChristina  Před rokem

      Lol. I can to, sometimes, but I am also making CZcams videos that I am trying to inspire food ideas to people with, and get them excited about backcountry meals. I also have colitis and need to balance the type of foods I eat, so i don’t get sick. And i also get migraines from certain processed foods, or, if I eat too many of them and also have to eat well for. I also go out camping every weekend or every other weekend, so I need more variety so I don’t get bored. We are all different. Do what you do, if it works for you. The important thing is you get out and enjoy being out. 😊😊😊

    Lovely! Have you ever tried down pants? I have a pair and they are so light but so comfy! Perfect for those temps and no rain. Your photos are amazing, those tree colors, the sky, the mirror water. The wildlife was great too.

      Well… You’ll have to keep watching the videos to see what happens. I do have a playlist on my CZcams channel called Camper Christina cooks. I’m not sure if you’re aware of it. Might be easier to get the information quicker LMAO. You’re hilarious. Thanks for all your support Karts!

      She does not. Just Instagram and you can find her at @epicmom_sue. I honestly didn’t anticipate having so much fun with her. She’s an awesome lady. Cheers
