It's been a late spring and we had to push our trip back due to a late Ice out in the lakes around my house. The Kearney permit office for Algonquin Park is about a 45-minute drive from my place and Algonquin is accessed via a narrow river reached by long dirt, forest access road.

I did this trip with Shawn James of My Self Reliance and my brother Ted and we brought my dog Buck along for the journey too. The point of this trip was to Brook Trout Fishing but by evening on Day One, we were worried the bite was off.

Our Route would see us portage into the Nipissing River which we'd follow for a while before heading south and portaging over a height-of-land into Burntroot Lake and the Petawawa system which we ascended for a stretch before branching off into the Tim river which we'd follow up (and up) gaining 48 meters in elevation by the time we reached Longbow Lake. Continuing up the Tim we'd finish our trip midday on Day 7 after paddling 120 kilometres and portaging a total of 15,730 meters. The route can be done in five days but if you want ample time to fish, eight or even nine days would not be too many.

This episode covers much of Day One of the journey and the ibntro gives a sneak peek of things to come, so stay tuned for more Algonquin Park adventure in the coming episodes!
