Single-handedly solving nothing

Crimson Lake Provincial Park – review

September 24, 2018 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Hanging out in a trailer while it rains during the day is one of the most underappreciated joys in life.  That may sound counterintuitive since most campers are hoping to be outside enjoying the sun and warmth and beauty of the natural world.  That is, presumably, the entire purpose of camping.  But the odd daytime […]

Jeremy’s Bay Campground – Kejimkujik National Park – review

September 17, 2018 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

I don’t imagine “national park nova scotia interior” is a common phrase entered into online search engines.  The knowledge that you would receive an accurate hit is likely even less common, save for those actually living in Nova Scotia.  Let’s face it, inland recreation is not the first thing, or tenth, that comes to mind […]

South Kouchibouguac Campground – Kouchibouguac National Park – review

September 10, 2018 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

As of this exact moment, we have camped in eight of Canada’s national parks.  We’ve also stayed in two others (hotels) and driven through four others, since we’re keeping stats.  With each new national park we visit, our affection for these Canadian treasures grows exponentially.  So too does our expectation, I suppose, which is why […]

Tyhee Lake Provincial Park – review

January 31, 2018 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

I thought I found heaven. That’s the trouble with first impressions.  They’re not always as trustworthy as colloquial wisdom would have us believe.  A pity, then, that they remain so hard to shake.  Even now, months since our visit, I’m having trouble not remembering Tyhee Lake Provincial Park as a sanctuary of recreational perfection nestled […]

Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park – review

June 22, 2017 by acrockofschmidt 2 Comments

And the wind cries, “who the hell would want to live here?!?!”  This is what courses through my mind every time we head to Southern Alberta for camping.  If you’re going south of Calgary you just can’t avoid the wind.  Places like Lethbridge and Pincher Creek are famous for it and for good reason.  Those […]

Pigeon Lake Provincial Park Campground – Review

July 13, 2016 by acrockofschmidt 1 Comment

Pigeon Lake Provincial Park

We made our way to Pigeon Lake Provincial Park for the Canada Day long weekend and things went awry before we even pulled the trailer out of the backyard, continued throughout our drive there, and failed to cease over the first night there.  With reviews in no small part reflecting the mindset of the reviewer […]
