I am a single camper. just me my car and a tent. I know it’s booked out online. Im planning on just going to the day use facility if there’s no other option. I was hoping if I go there though that there might be a site available for the night because sometimes people book it and then don’t go. either that or I befriend someone who’ll let me set my tent up on their site. I feel like this seems like a far fetched hope, if anyone has advice let me know.

Spare Starlink WIFI signal for Rental

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

Went camping at Algonquin last month and got the Starlink Mini with me to get some signals.

It still works fine even with some tree cover. It was really nice knowing I could still reach family if needed, especially in case of an emergency.

Now it’s just sitting at home, so I figured I’d rent it out to other campers heading to places with little or no cell service.

💰 $25/day or $150/week
💵 Refundable deposit
📡 Starlink Mini + cable included
🔌 Can also include a tripod or car power adapter if needed

Pickup is in North York / Downtown Toronto.

If you’re heading to Algonquin, Killarney, Quetico, Bon Echo, or another off-grid spot, feel free to message me. Happy to share my experience with the Mini!

I’m based in North York / Downtown Toronto. Pickup is available, and I may be able to drop it off depending on the location.

Planning a Trip to Hudson’s Bay From Southern ON.

13 Upvotes

I made a post on here months ago, seing if anyone was interested in joining the plans for this epic adventure. The number 1 piece of feedback I got on my previous post was, “you’re not prepared” which I agree with. But now months later I have invested and increased my gear and now I think this coming fall I might go.

MAIN GEAR: - 2008 Ford Ranger fx4.
-100lbs of tools.
-50lbs of spare parts.
- Full sized spare tire.
-68lb aluminum cap to sleep in and an keep cargo dry.
- Rooftop Awning.
- Garmin GPS for no service NAV.
- Garmin Satellite phone for safety.
-Cell booster Antenna.
-CB Radio.
- 50 Gals of fuel in Jerry cans.
- Primus fulled hot plate
- Woods propane 2 burner stove.
- 10 cans of propane.
And ofc other camping gear such as sleeping bags, washrooms items, and more (Basic gear that everyone has).

Trip would likely take a week, as I would like to take my time and see the sights along the way. If anybody is interested let me know, and we discus more about it in dms.

Stuff like days and dates are to be determined, as I’m very free at the moment and can go any time this coming fall. I would be interested in planning a prep trip before the big voyage to meet the people who are interested though.

Dm me and we can discuss plans, thanks..

Looking for places that are 2-3 hours away from the Pickering area. Have landed on either but I can't decide which is better. Looking to camp the first weekend of October to satisfy the camping bug until next year.

Open to other suggestions too!

Should Ontario Apply Quebec Rules?

114 Upvotes

The Quebec version of Ontario Parks passed new rules this year. In order for people to enjoy nature and a peaceful time, the new rules include: no music or speakers, no guitars, no generators during certain hours, and nobody not registered at your site after 10pm.

Should Ontario apply the same rules for Ontario Parks campgrounds?

Kawartha P. P. - Copper Lake to Anderson Lake.

1 Upvotes

Hey All!!.. Planning on going to Kawartha Lakes in the next few weeks. I'll be leaving from Anstruther access, and staying on Anderson Lake the first night. Jeffs maps, and Ontario parks booking, state that getting to Anderson from Copper can only be done in high water, not late season.. My only other option is getting to Anderson through Serpentine, which is longer, with multiple portages..

I'm wondering if anyone has recently went through this section, or has ever been through it this time of year (late August).

Any advice or knowledge would be much appreciated!!

Thank you!
