Warm weather in the first half of November got Drew (forum handle: "AlgonquinLakes") out on a day-trip exploring Sec, Mallard, Log Canoe, Little Sec, Wet and Norm Lakes .. .. "Sec Lake Exploratory".

Drew has also added a newsletter to his website "All Of Algonquin". The newsletter is called "The Thunderbox".

"Welcome to The Thunderbox, my (hopefully) monthly roundup of anything Algonquin related that’s caught my eye. This newsletter includes a spotlight lake, recent trip and campsite reports, reviews of any new gear I’ve been trying out (or maybe just old gear that I’m a huge fan of) and links to any relevant Algonquin content I’ve come across recently."

Wanda Spruyt has submitted a trip-log of her two-part mother-daughter & solo canoe trip taken this past August .. "Back-to-back Burnt Island / Opeongo Trip".

"Throughout our trip we saw and spoke with many people, often late in the day. Some were exhausted trying to find a good site, with no open sites within view or anywhere close for that matter. We did our best to direct some travelers to anything we knew was still open, as we paddled around quite a bit every day. For us this was a first. We have not yet had an issue finding a good site, although we usually travel later in the season. When half of Burnt Island Lake up to Caroline Island is full, its actually quite a long paddle from the portage to find an open site, especially when the majority have already travelled over four hours from Canoe Lake, wanting to camp ASAP.."

Evan has accompanied the videos with links and a text account on this website's forum at "Aug 2020: 6 Day Loop from Opeongo to McKaskill Cabin"

"The paddle down McKaskill is one that we won’t soon forget. The lake was calm, empty of people, and the sun was setting behind us. We paddled quietly through the multitude of islands and enjoyed the shorelines of the narrow northern section. The sky eventually went from a vibrant orange to a majestic purple as we entered the south end of the lake. Once you round the final island the McKaskill ranger cabin comes into view, nestled on the elevated southern shore. "

MartinG shared a trip-log report by means of a posting on the website forum. It has now been converted to a single conventional HTML page .. "Wendigo to Big Bissett Lake, Spring 2022".

"The creek between Weasel and Bisset was a little more difficult to paddle. It starts out wide and open but quickly narrows down to barely a boat wide. We kept a sharp eye out for the old portage entrance but saw nothing. Travelling further down, the creek opens up again into a wide marsh. Still no sign of a portage entrance. We continued to the first rapid. At this point I went into the forest south of the river looking for a sign of the old portage. I couldn't find anything amongst the thick tangle of trees and blow down."
