Ontario BS Thread

Pack a sweater brother !

 

ever see any bears up there?
wondering if I should bring my bear spray

 

already got one haha. gonna be a chilly night

 

There's bears all over the place. But they're just black bears. Look at them funny and they'll get scared.

 

Bah, that's why ya bring the significant other...they're usually slower...

Feets don't fail me now lol

 

Yea boys its cold as frig already up north here

Was 5 degrees when I walked the dogs this morning at 7 AM.

Bring those warm sleeping bags

 

Sorry guys/gals.... I was NOT able to reach a real person to talk to in the totally dysfunctional Ministry of Natural Resources.... All I got was recordings and nil response to 2 e-mails this last week. Thanx to Kathleen Whynnnie.!

This Ministry that I worked for 27 yrs, has been reduced to a useless answering machine that will not help anyone.

SO, in MY experience, you guys should have NO problem camping on Crown land this or any long weekend, unless it's posted otherwise... That's the Key.... It MUST be posted under the Public Lands Act of Ontario...(Provincial approved signage, not cottager's or anyone else).!! If it is not... then you are good to go and camp on Crown land.

I fully believe you will have no issue... I've never heard of MNR banning camping on long weekends, anywhere.!!!

I'm still thinking of a drive up Saturday to meet some of you guys, if I can fit it into my schedule...

Hope you have a great wknd... Gonna be cool at nights... Be prepared..!

John

 

Thanks John for doing all of that. There are already people up there from what @NorilskSever has been telling @Joe23 and me.

I'm going to try and head down there on the Saturday but it's not looking to good for me.

Have fun everyone!

 

Good stuff... have fun kids..!!

 

Water still warm to swim, but night is going to be chilly. I got drinks and firewood, should last me

Lots of Jeeps and Chevys in the area!

 

I've got two bags of wood from crappy tire. I'll try and grab another then.

You got enough to keep you warm for the night?

 

Yeah, I just met jeep people here, they have plenty of firewood, drinks and l̶a̶d̶i̶e̶s̶ lol. Hopefully I'll make it thru the night

 

need another bag?
I've got another -10 rated bag

 

All good, don't worry, I've got everything I need.

 

so where is this spot?

 

Get to the beach area and honk 3 times I'll meet you at the beach after.

 

ok
I have your number as well and I'll be on channel 36

 

Oh also I have 3 bags of fire wood now from Canadian tire.

I'll try and leave by noon. Just got a few errands that came up I gotta run in the morning hoping to get done quick so I can beat cottage traffic
