- On Saturday, June 17th, I hiked a mere 4.5kms on the Highlands Backpacking trail in Algonquin Park to spot number seven on Provoking Lake. Mission: seam-seal my Six Moons Lunar Solo 1p tent. What a beautiful backdrop to carry out this task. This is my last hike/camp trip before my big European summer-long hike/camp adventure. I hope you’ll enjoy this video!

Thanks for sharing
Merci pour regarder! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Thanks for another beautiful video Christina! I hope you're having or had an amazingggg time in Europe!!
Miss Star! Forgive me… I’m slowly trying to catch up on old comments that ’ve not responded to. Thanks for reaching out, I always love hearing from you. Any hiking or camping plans coming up soon?
Hi!
Really happy I stumbled upon your channel. The past two years I have camped the Algonquin backcountry with my partner but this year I am solo but still wish to venture and camp Algonquin. I’m not confident paddling solo yet so I’m thinking a hike in trip would be best. After watching this video Provoking Lake seems like it would be an excellent spot for me! Thank you for sharing!
Welcome to my channel! I have a whole playlist of my videos filmed in AlgonquinPark…check it out! You can definitely do it solo. Please let me know if I can help in anyway. 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Well done my friend enjoyed this wonderful place wishing all the best on your european trip wish I could go have fun be safe. Have the best weekend cheers 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi, Travel Hungry For Life! Again, I know I’ve said this to you before, but. I love your name! Thanks for watching and commenting…I really appreciate it! Six days until departure for my big trip, woot! woot! Can’t wait! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
@@Womaninthewoods13 Much appreciated my dear friend it's not easy thinking of a name
Looks like a nice hike and campsite ! I’ve picked up a Thermacell too for my Killarney canoe trip in July - relieved to see it’s effective !
It’s magic! Enjoy your canoe trip! 🥰✌🏼
Love the videos camping is so relaxing hi from Orillia
Haha, only seeing this now… Hi, Shannon! 😊✌🏼
Its ok
Fantastic tent sight!!
Merci, Monsieur Grand Chat! It was a great site. Any plans for you this summer?
@@Womaninthewoods13 hike as much as possible and sneak in a few ocean visits!!
@@bigcat880 Whereabouts are you located again? (Forgive me, I know I’ve asked this before.)
@@Womaninthewoods13 Vermont!
Super helpful video. I booked a last minute loop here - have paddled Algonquin backcountry but not hiked here yet - great to get a sense of the lake/route when booking last minute. Stumbled upon your channel doing research for this trip, but I will be following you moving forward!
I’m thrilled to hear that! I have an entire playlist of just my Algonquin trips. Click on the playlists tab and feel free to check out my other videos. Thanks again for watching! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Great video!
Well, thank you, Mister Ontario Gardener! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
I think I’d have to opt for the $30 for them to seam seal the tent provided they do a good job of course!
Trust me…I only opted to do it myself because I bought it from a secondary distributor to avoid shipping costs and duty from US! Then again, what seemed like a super intimidating task was easy and I’m glad I did it myself. 🥰✌🏼
If you aren't camping next weekend, maybe you could show what you are taking in your pack (gear/food) and what weight you will be at? I like gear shakedowns. ...but if there's no video next week, I want to wish you the best of luck on your trip. Have fun!
Fabulous idea, Mister Brewer. I just may do that. 🥰✌🏼
Hi Christina
Is it the exiting Camino de Santiago trail you going to hike?? I bet you purchased an Algonquin Park seasonal pass. Looks like your second home, lol.
I have been watching all your awesome hiking videos. Even met your hiking friend Margrit, twice in one week on the trail up in Bruce Peninsula.
Cheers!

So you are the lady that Margaret mentioned! Haha, helllloooooo! Very nice to virtually meet you! Thank you for watching my videos!
No, I already did the Camino de Santiago in the summer of 2018, right before starting up this channel. I will do it again one day, though!
Very nice to meet you, Lucia! Thank you for saying hello! Happy trails! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Seam sealing is a miserable task and one left to the annals of 1990. Its insane a tent is not factory sealed. Especially now that the bingo dabber seal bottles are so hard to find.
It is insane! It’s like “Here. We almost finished making this product but hey YOU finish it.” 🤷🏻♀️
@@Womaninthewoods13 haha! Agreed. It is a lazy way to manufacture. This might be why Durston is leading the way. Or “old school” tents like Big Agnes and Nemo
Howdy Miss Christina! The big summer adventure is knocking on the door. Can't wait for it to begin! You did a great job applying the seam sealer. Very neat. Until next time, take care and god bless
You’re so sweet, Dan! 🥰
I vote for a bicycle ride around the city. It’ll be a good video because you meet interesting people and find interesting locations. Call it your goodbye tour for the summer. Have you upgraded your trusty Raleigh bicycle yet?
I have no plans to “upgrade” my precious and perfectly-serving Raleigh! What would make you ask that?
Yesterday, it rained. Today, I ride. 😊
@@Womaninthewoods13 I thought you might add different tires with a higher load capacity to handle the hot weather when heavily loaded. Maybe prevent any future flat tires like you experienced riding to Vancouver in 2020.
@@robertdeboer815 I buy the tires that fit the bike! I am not planning any long-distance ride. To use fatter tires with a higher load capacity I’d have to change bicycles. Flat tires will happen on any bike. Are you saying there is something I should have done differently in my ride to Vancouver?
@@Womaninthewoods13 No, flats happen. Given the distance you rode, it's probably an average amount of flats that anyone would experience.
I am pretty certain that your excitement from your upcoming hike is pretty intense right about now. I think we are all excited for you too. You are ready to go and get that thing going. Great trip here at Algonquin Park, obviously a wonderful place to put yourself at ease (the seam sealing is probably very good therapy to help you prepare and ease into what is coming up for you.) You are ready! Let's go! Thanks for another great video Christina and have a great time this summer. See you on the next one.
Hey there, Mister Campfire! Yes, I am very ready to get going already! I’ve had many nights wheee I’m waking up with anxiety about the trip. Spending this weekend solely focused on final preparations has helped with that. I’m so excited! Six days until departure! Thanks for always leaving such nice, thoughtful comments, Mister Campfire. They mean a lot to me! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Great video, thanks for taking us along.
Merci beaucoup, Mister Giddy! As always, thank you for watching! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Blessings, peace, and safety on your upcoming trip!
How sweet, Marlene! Merci beaucoup! 🥰
What a scenery my friend, this upload is a gem! Love editing here 👏👏
Merci, Ervin! What are your plans this summer? I will be in Europe!
Great videos, I booked Frontenac about 5 months ago and heading there in 2 weeks with my daughter for her first camping trip and then we are at provoking lake in Aug. Cant wait, just hope the fire bans lift with all this rain (having a feeling they will wait till after the fireworks this weekend) .. will make the best of it either way. We bought the same termacell and have never used it before.. do you find you actually get 4 hours per pad and 12 per fuel canister?? I was planning on bringing "36hrs" worth for 4 days and 3 nights.
Yes! Absolutely you get a full four hours out of each pad! Yay, have fun camping with your daughter! And thank you for watching and commenting. 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
@@Womaninthewoods13 great thanks for the info!
Beautiful lake
Yes, Phillip, it certainly was! Thank you for watching!
One of my fav lakes - don't you have to do the seam seal from Inside ?
Nooooooo! It’s best to seam seal from the outside! You aren’t the first person to ask me this. I will explain why in my next video! 🥰✌🏼
I’m glad you gave a reminder / request to join Patreon, as the amount of effort and time you spend on traveling / making your videos should be rewarded!
Also, take a break next weekend 🙏. Reset, relax, and prep!
Yep. I’m staying in the city this weekend. 🥰
Fingers crossed 🤞 for 3,000+ Subscribers come on folks!! 🤩
Hi from the UK. Nice video, such a beautiful and peaceful lake.
Can you tell me the name of that Mosquito repellant device you have, or send me a link where I can buy one, please, Christina ? Thanks 😊
Hello, over there in the UK! So, I’m curious, how did you find my channel? I’m so happy to have you as a viewer! I’ve been to England; was in London for the Queen’s jubilee back in 2000, and the World Cup. It was fun!
The device is called Thermacell. This is a US link, but may provide you with more info on the product: www.thermacell.com/. It is truly amazing! Let me know if you are able to find it over there! Good luck!
@Womaninthewoods13
Hi again, thank you for the link.
I managed to find it on Amazon.
Your channel popped up on my feed, i am presuming because I subscribe to a lot of camping channels like simon a bloke in the woods, and kent survival. 2 channels I highly recommend. I find your channel refreshingly honest and un staged which is great.
I like Canada, it has lovely people and beautiful countryside, however I think I would be scared to camp there because of the bears, and the mosquitos would do my head in!
Hey Christina I’m Matt, i really enjoy your videos I came across your channel by watching Steve Wallis and on the beer donations, I was curious how do you manage to get on that scroll? I have a channel as well and it would probably help out
Hi, Matt! Thank you for giving me a chance and I am glad you are enjoying my videos! Just give a beer donation! The scroll is a list of donors. Steve Wallis is awesome, just love him. I’ll check out your channel, too! Thanks again for watching! 🥰🙏🏼✌🏼
Hello! Just wondering where did you park and start hiking to the camp site provoking01? And what's the distance?
You park at the designated lot for the Highlands Backapcking Trail. The distance depends on what site you have. It is best to purchase the backpacking map or look online; both show you the distance in kilometres and you can figure out how long of a hike it will be to whatever spot it is you’re able to reserve. I hope that helps.
@@Womaninthewoods13 thanks it helps! Im thinking to go provoking01. That's why i left a comment to ask as it looks like you went to same site but different site number.
When are you going to tell us where you are going this summer?
Muah ha ha ha ha…I’ll keep y’all waiting as long as possible! Hahahaha! 😂🤣😂
