		<description><![CDATA[On January 15, 2011, I had the distinct pleasure of spending the day with Pinock Smith, a master builder, known for his traditional canoe-building methods. I first heard of Pinock in the second season of Ray Mears&#8217; Bushcraft, where he and Ray built an authentic birchbark canoe in a week. They worked on screen again in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I came across an article on this subject from the Ontario Parks Insider enewsletter. It&#8217;s a quick overview of the main tasks to think about when you&#8217;re squirreling your gear away for the off-season, or just to give your gear a good clean after some hard use. Although camping and outdoor pursuits don&#8217;t need to end [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[  I&#8217;d like to talk about one decision I&#8217;ve made when it comes to kitchen on a canoe trip. There&#8217;s a part of me that wants to go as ultra-light as possible, knife and a flint striker and some rope, and improvise from there, but there&#8217;s another, more obsessive side that wants to bring every [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This was a good trip for my friend Keith&#8217;s first time into Algonquin, in terms of what to expect for canoeing, since the Tim River to Rosebary, and then on from Longbow to Sitting Man Lake (our final destination) is a good mix of winding rivers, grassy marsh, ponds, and nice, open lakes with deeper [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I live in a small apartment in downtown Toronto, Canada, so I had a few challenges to deal with when deciding which canoe to buy. I needed flexible storage and transportation options. I ended up with a Pakcanoe, a skin-on-frame canoe that comes apart and stores or travels in a bag about the size of [...]]]></description>
