That’s an amazing campsite you ended up with. I like how much privacy you have and how it’s right by the water. Great video!

I certainly could have done a lot worse, thanks for watching!

Pretty country

It is but my heart is in the mountains. That said, I have an unexpected trip to Calgary next month. Will squeeze in a backpacking trip!

The 2 campsites on Loft Lake are now canoe campsites.

Good to know, thx!

Enjoyed the trip videos. Good thing you didn't take that unmaintained portion. I did, with my youngest son, in Oct. 21 and there's a creek/small pond you have to cross about a km before Loft Lake. You can see the remnants of a bridge that's no longer there. I tried wading through and ended up waist deep before turning around at a spot where my trekking poles no longer touched bottom lol. You can still get through but have to bushwack for a bit. Loft has a very nice campsite just off the trail complete with a sandy beach. Did you end up getting to The SIlhouette in Killarney? Definitely looking forward to those videos if you did make it! I've already booked a trip there for May 1 - 7 next year in the hopes of avoiding the black flies.

Wow, quite the adventure. That actually sounds enticing, and no one for miles I bet! Unfortunately I had to cancel Killarney. You may have noticed on this trip my knee was acting up towards the end. Well, my next trip (Luellen Lake video) was supposed to be four days of alpine bliss in Banff but it ended after one night. I was crushed but I tried not to show it on the video but better safe than sorry. Now rehabbing for the winter and will test it out in the spring. Hopefully next year!
