A musically charged trip with the boys to one of Algonquin's islands. We used the Canon Vixia HF S20 with its DM-100 microphone and Sony Vegas for editing.
Driving from Toronto, we entered the park throught it's west gate and drove along Highway 60. Had to take a 6-km detour north of Hwy 60 to get to the Opeongo Lake Outfitters (km 46). There we rented the aluminum canoe, the paddles and vests. There are several Access Points throughtout the park, allowing overnight campers into the backcountry. We got off the highway at #10 (km 40) and drove on the gravel road for a few minutes until we couldn't go any further. Down the hill into a short but steep portage that took us to Sunday Lake.
Once at the island we just relaxed and enjoyed the perfect weather to the fullest. Temps were down to 5C at night but very comfortable during the day.
The last scenes in the video were shot during the Lookout Trail hike (km 39).
