The Sign Depot – @ The Top Of Canada

Peter Moir of The Sign Depot Heads To The Top of Canada

Last month Peter Moir, owner/president of The Sign Depot went on his yearly canoe trip.  This year his trip took him to the top of Canada.  He and his canoe group headed to Baffin Island, Nunavut to explore the Mount Joy area of the Soper River. The Soper River, now deemed a heritage river in Canada, is region full of wildlife, including polar bears!

The summer days are extended in Baffin Island.  With only a few hours of darkness you can explore the area at length each day.  As you can see Peter was able to find great scenery along his canoeing adventure.

A lot of planning went into preparing for this trip.  Here are just a few things to think about when planning a canoe trip vacation.

How To Plan A Canoe Trip

• Research the area – Make sure you are aware of the rules and regulations for that area
• Travel light – Everything you need has to be transported by canoe or carried by you
• Make it waterproof – Keep your belongings in a watertight container to avoid damage
• Capture the moment – Remember your camera so you are able to photograph your adventure

These are just a few things to think about when planning a canoe trip.  The best way to prepare is to speak to someone with a lot of paddling experience.

Summer Vacation

How are you spending your summer vacation? Are you planning a canoe trip or something else? Perhaps a long trek, or a relaxing time at a cottage or cabin? Which ever you choose we hope you get to spend some time enjoying the outdoors this summer. It won’t be long until the winter starts to creep in and we’ll be talking about hygge once again.
