    The Happy Camper: The Canadian-Made Jacket I’ll Never Stop Wearing – Explore Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The weather was foul on the last day of my latest canoe trip. The morning temperature was a mere 3 C, the harsh northwest wind was forming some good-sized whitecaps out on the lake and a good amount of rain was set in the forecast. A perfect time to test out my new Chinook Shell—an exclusive jacket released by explore to help celebrate their 45th anniversary. The main reason I had it shipped to me may not be the first reason you would—it meant so much to me. The jacket comes with an explore 45th

    The Happy Camper: Parks of the St. Lawrence’s New Tent Hammocks Are Made for Non-RV Campers – Explore Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    I’ve found myself spending more time camping at the Parks of the St. Lawrence this past camping season rather than the more common Ontario Parks. Why? While Ontario Parks has done a great job adding up to 300 new campsites and upgrading around 800 existing sites, the majority of them are electric, suited for big RVs. I own a tent, what I think of as an inexpensive mini nylon dome of coziness. It seems Ontario Parks’ expansion isn’t fitting to my way of life… but Parks of the St. Lawrence is. Thi

    The Happy Camper: Why I Refuse to Present in the U.S. Once Again – Explore Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I’m not entirely sure what my obsession is with using 80s bands to discuss my deep philosophy about wilderness protection, but it seems to be a theme with me lately… and I am okay with it. I think it brings a past with the present…and a learning curve for the future. Loverboy’s lead singer Mike Reno may not have the butt he had on the cover of the band’s second hit studio album Get Lucky, but he still has the pipes to beat out, “I gotta do it my way.” I’ll give him that! Other Canadian rockers h

    The Happy Camper: It Seems I’m the Commoner of the Canoe World – Explore Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The room was full of pompous paddlers wearing their matching tan-coloured shirt and pants, and capped with bright white Tilley hats. Conversations were about their lavish and beyond exorbitant trips to the far north. There was some idle chatter about proper gear, traditional canoe designs and the evils of young canoeists and their silly YouTube channels. Then the conversation turned to be about me—and that’s when things got a little interesting. I had become the fly on the wall, or the mosquito

    The Happy Camper: Why the Experience May Be Better Than the Destination – Explore Magazine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    You’d think that a writer who has published countless paddling guidebooks would be more into the destination than the experience had along the way. Nope! To me, it has always been what happens between A and B, not how to get from A to B. I was reminded of that experiential notion on my latest solo canoe trip in Quebec’s La Verendrye Wildlife Reserve. I jumped into the trip like a thoroughbred racehorse at the starting gate. Think about it, a canoe writer set free in the largest protected wildern
