Travelling Logan did a lot of travelling this past week! He stopped for a photo-op at this rest stop on the Laurentian Divide, the height of land between the Atlantic and Arctic watersheds.

There are five of these signs along Ontario highways - have you been to any? How about similar markers in other provinces?

Got a case of the Mondays? Feel free to live vicariously through this video. Let your mind be transported to a quiet riverside campsite in Temagami at daybreak, and pretend that you're sipping your coffee on the bank, bathed in the cool morning mist, instead of at your desk.
Rewind and watch again as needed. You're welcome. 😉

It's time for a staff product review! OO staffer Jack is here to share his experience with the MSR PocketRocket Deluxe stove kit. You can check out all the specs here: https://outdoorsoriented.com/products/msr-pocket-rocket-deluxe-stove-kit

"One purchase I've gotten some good use of is the MSR Pocket Rocket Deluxe (stove kit system). I love the ease of use, boils water very quick, takes minimal space to pack, and held up surprisingly well firing in the wind. At first I only planned on using it for camping, but it's a great addition for day hikes too! I'll bring it along if I ever want a warm meal, or some coffee/tea during the colder months. If you're looking to get one, I'd also recommend getting the Jetboil canister stabilizer with it because the fuel canisters can be a bit tippy on uneven surfaces." -Jack

Happy Labour Day weekend!
This is a great time of year for a roadtrip, and the Dempster Highway in northwestern Canada is the roadtrip of a lifetime. The Dempster is more than 700km of unpaved, remote roadway that stretches from the Dawson City, YT area to Inuvik, NWT on the Mackenzie River delta. It's a spectacular adventure in a stunning part of Canada that many people never see.
OO staffer Laura took this photo near Tombstone Territorial Park in 2019.

However you're enjoying the outdoors this weekend, have fun and be safe!

OO staffer Laura was lucky enough to visit Mississagi last fall, and absolutely loved it! Gorgeous views, rugged trails, and clear calm lakes. It's definitely a hidden gem! We have park maps in stock in case you decide to add Mississagi to your fall itinerary 😉

Travelling Logan explored the Bruce Peninsula last week and took in the sights at some popular destinations, as well as some hidden gems. There's so much to see on the Bruce, and there's something for everyone, whether you're looking for a chill beach day, a rugged backcountry hike, or anything in between!

The stuff of dreams.

Our fearless leader Jamie was out on Georgian Bay this past weekend and shot this incredible footage. No description required... just feast your eyes. If this doesn't inspire you to go on a kayak trip (like it does for me) then I don't know what will!
