Description

Looking for the path less paddled? Veteran paddler Kevin Callan's seventh book guides us along lesser-known waterways in the lake- and river-rich paddling mecca of Ontario. Tired of counting red canoes like VWs on the highway? Fed up with portage line-ups? Get lost with one of Ontario's most popular canoeing guides. Includes detailed trip descriptions, maps of all access points, accurate portage lengths, tips, advice, history, folklore, and Callan's trademark self-effacing anecdotes of his encounters with bugs, fish, wildlife, whitewater, weather and campsite gremlins.

Editorial Reviews

I was able to see firsthand the care, research and attention to detail that Kevin puts into his canoe guides. Kevin is a dedicated wilderness canoeist determined to preserve the backcountry and the ancient routes through it.
