So….whats your opinion on the Ministry of “No Results”? So far over the last 20 years our forests have been decimated due to mismanagement, our bear management is totally out to lunch, our lakes are no longer being stocked, (slot sizes) new fisheries management zones, no staff on the ground to collect the data to make sound decisions….policy……., new moose management policy…meetings……….public input…..give your head a shake boys….they haven’t got a flipping clue about our natural resources. Now lets bring into the swing of things……Species at Risk………I’m waiting for the Ministry to finally acknowledge that there are “Native” populations of cougars in Ontario. Look out……….now they will have to come up with a management policy to address this…………because they are “A species at risk” . Ok, I could go on for pages and pages……I’ve been employed in the natural resource field for over 25 years and it all makes me sick.

ATV’ing Apsley Style
ATV’ing Apsley Style
Well I spent a full day on the trails around Apsley/Coe Hill; don’t ask me where I was after the first fifteen minutes I didn’t know north south east or west. I was with some locals who knew basically where they were………within a tanks distance of Coe Hill. Thank God we had a GPS and some trail maps. The maze of roads trails yadda yadda………194 kilometres later we were home. A couple of beers, some steak potatoes and more suds………………snooze time. It was one of those experiences you never forget, the trees were starting to turn, the weather was not too hot, the trails not too dusty, and the scenery and views were awesome. if you want to see some back country be sure to check it out………..don’t forget your GPS, some maps, extra fuel and some snacks………and don’t go by yourself, its always nice to have someone there in case you break down or get stuck……..

Dry Bags for camping, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, hunting
This is another one of those pieces of equipment that every outdoors enthusiast should consider a necessity. Let’s face it we’ve all been out on a lake in a canoe or kayak, loaded down with gear, weather forecast said ” Clear skies, chance of precipitation 10%”. OK, well how do you explain the torrential downpour that lasted for four days, after we were already 10 miles from the dock. All our gear was floating in water; clothes soaked, electronics fried, food all soggy……….not even a dry piece of clothing. So now you can relate to what I’m saying…….I instantly took you back to that exact experience. With these dry bags which come in various sizes and configurations; it makes trips like the one I mentioned a bit more bearable. I now own numerous dry bags all suited to a different purpose; they’re awesome!
