The Details

Welcome to Moose Quest! I'm excited to have you along for the journey.  We will be camped on a beautiful lake in Algonquin Provincial Park and will explore nearby wetlands by canoe in search of moose and other wildlife. 

DAILY ITINERARY:
Day 1: meet in the afternoon and head out via boat and then canoe from thereon after. The boat trip is about 20 minutes, at which point we will be dropped off at our beautiful waterfront campsite. After settling in, setting up camp, and having an early dinner,  we will head out in canoes in search of wildlife. After returning to camp we'll have a quick bite and head to bed before an early morning.
Day 2: early rise  (probably before sunrise based on group decision) + out on the canoes until late morning. Afternoon - rest period at camp. You'll have an opportunity to go for a swim, enjoy food around the fire or even take a nap if desired. Evening - we'll have an early dinner again and head out on the water until dusk (which is around 9pm). After returning to camp we typically have a quick bite and head to bed before another early morning.
Day 3: early rise for a final photography session on the water. We'll return to camp late morning, pack up our belongings, and head back via the boat ride while taking in the spectacular views along the way.

WHAT'S INCLUDED:

Meals, comfortable camping gear, transportation on the water, professional guiding and photography instruction (if desired) are all included.
I'm eager to provide you with the best possible experience!

YOUR ROLE:

Enjoy your photography + nature viewing from the canoe! The vast majority of the trip will involve travel through calm wetlands. If you'd like to get involved with some of the paddling, food prep, and camp tasks ...great! We do encourage active participation. In between photography sessions you'll enjoy the views right from our campsite while you sit by the warmth of the fire.
