Description: Describes 8 night canoe trip from the Northern Tier base to Quetico Provincial Park in Canada.
USSSP: Scoutcamp.org - Camp Stories The crew left the Charles L. Sommers Northern Tier Canoe Base on June 22nd. We crossed into Canada that same day and spent the next 8 nights in Quetico Provincial Park in Canada. For the middle 4 of those days, we didn't see another human being. We paddled about 90 miles, and portaged (poor-tahged, with the accent on the 2nd syllable) another 5.5. I was very happy, and somewhat surprised, that the Scouts set a challenging route for themselves. We had a great guide, Martin, who did a wonderful job with the boys (and the adults...), making sure we learned a few things about the area, canoeing, and ourselves. The guides get trip assignments on a bid system where the most experienced guides get the first bid. The most desired bids are the 10-day Quetico trips, which--not knowing this--is what we took.
