Itinerary and/or Specific Activities planned:

This trip provides a basic introduction to wilderness travel for your class. We meet at a large campground on Kingscote Lake in Algonquin and basecamp here for the three days. We will work on ORCKA canoe skills, personal equipment packing, meal preparation, campsite set up, group dynamics, and teamwork, and if all goes well we spend one night as two separate tripping groups on backcountry campsites. In the rare case of adverse weather conditions, and it is determined that lake travel is not possible with the group, we will stay at the Kingscote campground rather than heading out to remote sites. This doesn’t happen very often.

Method of Transportation:
School Bus

Grade 6 – Wilderness Camping
