- My last adventure of the summer! On Wednesday, August 31st, 2022, I set out from the Highway 60 entry point on the Western Uplands Backpacking Trail in Algonquin Park. I hiked this 75km backpacking trail over four days. The sunrise after my first night was spectacular, to say the least. This trail is challenging with many, many beautiful vistas along the way. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed the experience and filming it, as well.

This looks awesome and I've been looking for great and challenging multiday backpacking trips in ontario. If everything goes to plan I'm totally doing this route this summer. Thanks for the inspiration.
Great video awesome spots. Mr Rogers would be heart broken by your shoe change lol good luck at going back to work!
🤣🤣🤣
If you derive such contentment from backpacking, I can only imagine how much more gratification you will experience from multi-day backcountry canoe-tripping. You really should try it because I know you'd love it.
Cheers,

Funny, I was eyeing the canoe route map when I was in Algonquin last weekend. 😁😁😁
@@zencamper270 Saturday is my book launch party for “Look Ma, No Hands.” I guess you’re not coming?
@@Womaninthewoods13 I agree
@@Womaninthewoods13 Paddling in the morning. I'll be by afterwards
@@zencamper270 I’ll put your under quilt in my car!!!
Wonderful video! Totally enjoyed "hiking with you"! I shall have to consider this trail some year! I'm so impressed and amazed at your courage to hike alone. I would love to cultivate that daring in myself.
Thank you for posting the video. I shall check out your other videos.......
Hello, Marlene! Thank you so much for your lovely comment. You can do it! Baby steps, of course. Let me know if you have any questions, or if I can be of any help at all. And thank you for watching! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
@@Womaninthewoods13 That is good advise. Perhaps I will try a two day, one night camping trip somewhere.
Have you done the La Cloche Silhouette trail in Killarney Provincial Park? It is stunning and challenging and I love it. I've done the trail 5 times, but always with friends. If I could manage my anxiety of sleeping alone in the backcountry, I would absolutely love to hike the trail solo.
@@marlenemohle7945 Not yet, but it’s already on the list. I’ve done the day hike of The Crack only (see my video #121). 😊✌🏼

This was an amazing adventure to finish up your summer escape from the city. Beautiful camps, beautiful views, and challenging trails. I am very happy for you that the weather was willing to cooperate and refrain from raining on you and turning the trails into mud bogs. I would say that you took full advantage of every minute of your summer vacation and while doing so, you provided some excellent video content for your eager TH-cam followers. Thank you Christina, you added enjoyment to our summer too. Now you can begin the next chapter of your journey of 11 years and seven months until bliss. Take care my friend and squeeze in a little relaxation now. See you on the next one.
Hiking IS my relaxation! I was back at it again last weekend, after my first week back to work, haha. Thank you so much for your lovely comment, Mr. Campfire. I enjoy hearing from you. Thank you, as always, for watching! 😊💛🙏🏼✌🏼
The tree that grew around the boulders was rather odd.
Maybe you should call out for pizza, after walking for hours on end and then having to make the Knorr/Great Value combo? Well, you could have it flown in on the lake?
I was going to set up a GoFundMe for your talking hiking boots, but later you did what I would have, duct tape them for the time being. You indicated you had another pair of boots, but if they are in the vehicle, then they might as well be home for the good they’ll do. Yes, on the tripping because of the shoe flaps catching on everything.
Once again, you walk over dizzying height bridges, cross potential quicksand areas to get the in the daily mileage (kilometerage?), and not to mention wear trip hazard and non-OSHA standard boots during the hikes. What a trouper. 😊
Haha, it’s a jungle out there, Mister Smith! The shoes were in the car because I knew mine would go soon. A couple of days of flapping and duct tape aren’t the end of the world. I’m glad I had the back-ups in the car! And today I leave for my huge 40-day European hike/camp trip…woot! woot! Can’t wait to start! Thanks for watching and commenting! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Gorgeous, I'm jealous of you on this adventure. It looks simply fantastic. When a TH-cam video is made with love, it looks like this.🥾🥾
Thanks, Ervin! Have a wonderful weekend! 💛🙏🏼✌🏼
There oughta be a hikers hall of fame and you could donate those boots 😀. Or you could bronze them. Well done! Your body needs to rest now. Amazing summer!!
Hi, Karen! Hope you had a great summer, too! ❤
Great video, what an awesome adventure to finish out your summer.
Right!? Thanks for watching, Ken. Have a wonderful weekend!
Great video! Awesome editing ad music. New follower here. Cool place to explore. Crow
Yay! Thank you so much! And welcome!
I’ve subscribed to your channel, too, by the way!
It was really nice meeting you on the trail. Great video!
Ditto! Fantastic to meet you, too! I liked your Tripping and Trekking page on Facebook, too. Have a great weekend!
Hey, get yourself an underquilt for that hammock, you'll never be cold again.
Actually, I’ve started putting my Thermarest NeoAir Xlite sleep pad inside my sleeping bag in the hammock tent and wow what a difference. Much more compact (and I expensive) than an underquilt! Thank you for watching, suggesting and commenting, Mike! I hope you’re having a wonderful week. 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
@@Womaninthewoods13 That's not a bad idea. And if you have it, it's better than spending $300+ on the underquilt. For what it's worth I think my Jacks R Better, Greylock 3 (3/4 length) might pack down smaller than a pad. I remember receiving it in the mail, and thinking they didn't ship the underquilt because the box was so small. No bigger than a softball.
Otherwise, you got yourself a new subscriber. I always enjoy seeing what other solo trippers are up too in Ontario. Enjoy the trails!
@@mikeb5664 Amazing! Thank you so much for giving me a chance. Wow, that’s pretty compact for a quilt! Maybe one day when I have more money, ha ha, I’ll give an under quilt a try, in that case. Thanks again for the information and have a wonderful day! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Beautiful adventure.. enjoy 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Thanks! I see you’ve been doing a lot of The Bruce Trail lately. Great videos!
What an amazing hike to end the summer!! I'd love to do one of these but I don't have the physical endurance/ability to do such long treks so it's really nice to see these Algonquin hikes through your eyes! I wonder if those green blobs are bryozoan. I've seen them in lakes in the Kawarthas. Anyways beautiful scenery always happy to see the loons 💜
Bryozoan? I don’t know! Maybe! Yes, was a wonderful way to end my summer! Nice to hear from you!
Cheeseburger stew for the win, twice! Gotta remember this combo as an easy alternative to ramen bomb
Just put less bacon. It’s rich and overpowering. I will give this meal a shot again; won’t retire it quite yet. 😁
sad that your dehydrated meal went rancid. probably because if the beef, she needs to use low fat beef and rinse the beef well before dehydration...
It was vegetarian, and my friend is new to dehydrating. I should have brought a back-up meal. I was fine with what I ate, though. Thank you so much for watching!
Where can I find that hammock tent?

What is the best way to donate for a new pair of shoes for you? Those feet deserve better!
