1 week ago | explore-mag.com | Doug O'Neill

It’s that time of year when nature is calling—and so is Pride. No sooner have we reserved our first campsite, restocked dry bags and dusted off our hiking boots, it’s time to celebrate International Pride Day (on June 28), a festive event that has evolved since the first LGBTQ Pride Festival in Canada was celebrated in 1971. Many Canadian communities now honour Pride Month in June or August—some even earlier. And Pride activities have grown to include more than parties and parades.
Two Decades of Running Later, Here is What Matters to Me Now – Explore Magazine

There’s a spot exactly two-and-a-half kilometres from my apartment where a little orange A-frame house sits next to the river. Behind it, mountains stretch up towards the sky. This marks the halfway point of my five-kilometre out-and-back running route—a riverside stretch where the water glitters in the sun or pools like black ink depending on the weather. Usually, I pause here for a moment before continuing. This is a route that I run regularly.

I’m hiking behind my young son on an easy stretch of the Grassi Lakes Trail when I see the toe of his hiking boot catch on a root.

With smoke lingering across Manitoba, recent wildfires have disrupted not just the landscape but the lives of those who depend on it. In Lac du Bonnet, lives were lost. Whiteshell and Nopiming Provincial Parks, two of Manitoba’s best-known playgrounds, were hugely impacted with cottagers, visitors and businesses evacuated quickly.
The Happy Camper: Trip Planning and the Importance of a Checklist – Explore Magazine

1 week ago | explore-mag.com | Kevin Callan

Always check your gear list before heading out on trip. Why? Well, there’s been a few times when I hadn’t and suffered greatly from it. I once drove all the way to Temagami for a canoe trip and didn’t realize that I had left the paddles on my front porch back home. I had to rent some cheap one’s off an outfitter. Last year, I had the job of bringing the coffee for our entire group on a canoe trip and discovered that I had packed whole beans instead of grounded java.

When hiking in bear country, carrying bear spray is a must in case of an aggressive animal encounter. But since it’s something you usually only reach for during bear season, it’s easy to forget about once it’s stashed away. And because bear charges are rare, and bear spray isn’t exactly cheap, you might be tempted to hold on to an expired canister a little longer.
