1 month ago | hikebiketravel.com | Leigh McAdam

Camping with a dog is one of the most rewarding ways to spend time outdoors. I especially love the remote places we’ve explored with our dogs—whether hiking deep into the backcountry or paddling on wilderness canoe trips like Reindeer Lake in Saskatchewan or the Peace River in Alberta.

1 month ago | hikebiketravel.com | Leigh McAdam

It’s easy to fall in love with Loreto, Mexico – an authentic, safe Mexican town overlooking the turquoise-blue waters of the Sea of Cortez that remains largely unchanged after 25 years. I say that as I visited Loreto back in the late 90’s on three other occasions when I came to sea kayak for a week at a time. What I noticed on my April 2025 trip to Loreto is that the population has grown – but not exploded – and resorts haven’t taken over the town.

Mar 6, 2025 | hikebiketravel.com | Leigh McAdam

The Cariboo Gold Rush Trail in the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast region is a route rich in history that winds through a hilly landscape once traveled by prospectors in search of fortune.
