Fishing Malbaie River
42℉ at 4:00 AM, high of 65 Tuesday, August 23, 2016 I was excited and a bit nervous to go to the other side of the park to fish the Malbaie River. It was 5:30 and fairly light as I set out. I stopped in the parking lot to read the map to see where…

A Day of Fishing for Greg
August 24, Tuesday Martha here. First, let me say that we are now into our fourth week of camping. It’s just hard to believe. Knock on wood, we have had no major problems and we are still talking to each other. Greg must have been very excited about fishing. I think I heard him get…

Heading for Grand-Jardins National Parc
63℉ at 6:00 to a high of 75℉ Monday, August 22, 2016 It rained hard all night, which brought the stream up considerably. They need rain here, so it is good. It is also quite nice that it came at night again and that it waited until the weekend was over. All those campers had…

People flock in from everywhere, bringing the entire family. Some let the kids out while they are waiting to register. Then they follow their camper on bicycles or skateboards…

Camping Rouillard, Lac-à-la-Tortue, Québec
I prefer staying in a provincial or national park, but Rouillard Campground has grown on me. This is a family-owned campground, and they are very nice people. They gave us a nice, quiet spot, and they work very hard to make you comfortable and provide everything you need. Maybe a little early, but they are…

Parc National du Mauricie
Tuesday, August 16, 2016 55℉ at 5:00 and high of 72℉ We decided on a hike today after getting off to a slow start. Martha picked a hike to Lac Waber, but you have to access it by canoe, so we tried another at the top of Lac Wapizagonke called View Brulis. There is an…
