Valoius :

Did you say your shorts are cotton? Cotton does not dry quickly, unfortunately.

Jacq_in_the_Wild #ffab 🕊 🇨🇦 :

pillow is a must.

Sheilamcm :

I’m not sure when you’re going but it’s brutally hot here, I live 30 minutes from Algonquin Park. Make sure you have lots of sunscreen, bug repellent and lots of water. Stay safe and have fun.

cazzyc04 :

Pressures on to keep Jules safe throughout this 😆😆

Kel Ir :

You can get a Nalgene bottle that’s glow in the dark- and they glow for 8+ hours. I had one for 10 years and was WORTH it for hiking and trips

Sarah G 🇨🇦 :

I do a lot of backcountry canoe tripping/camping and never bring a camp pillow. They all kindof suck imo. I bring a cotton pillowcase from home and just stuff it with my jacket/sweater and any extra clothing im not using. You can put your PFD underneath it if it's dry to prop it up a bit more if youre usually a 2 pillow sleeper.

JULES THE LAWYER :

Absolutely love the oakleys!!!!!

Kasper194 :

Lots of bug spray!!

Louise F :

Use your PFD/ life jacket as a pillow.

Jacquie Ducroix :

I’m going to be out in Algonquin then too!!!! Backcountry camping with my husband and 5 year old!!! 👏👏👏

Fayne ✨🌸🍀👁️🇹🇹🇨🇦 :

Brook Halford 🇨🇦 :

I’m distracted by how gorgeous your hair looks

Rachiedoo 🇨🇦 :

saigeellen :

Lisa Cashin Galon :

Lisi :

A Thermacell for mosquitos. There is a backpacking one. You can get them at Canadian Tire. They were on sale last week for $40.

just :

Keep an eye on weather alerts! Tornado warnings and heat advisories are insane this week

Catherine Spreitzer :

No need for camp pillows. Just use the bag your clothes are in. Have fun!

Cass Res :

omg i did this a few years ago. Where are you going in algonquin!? DM me if you have questions!!

EDWARDCROSSLAND :

Come on Bel you can do this have fun girls but most of all STAY SAFE xx

Brianna2448 :

I thought this was about to be a haul of the goody bags you had planned for the girls on the trip. I was a little concerned 😂

Hope Bay 🇨🇦 🏕️ :

You got this. I do trips.

emheb12 :

I love Algonquin! I was always an anti-pillow user but tbh now that I've found one it's non-negotiable. NEMO has the *best* pillows. I have the backcountry ultra light and front country versions. 10/10 recommend. Run to MEC!

j.j1960🇨🇦 :

Don’t forget bear spray, sunscreen & lots of bug spray! I hear the bugs are intense this year. If you have room, aloe & cortisone for bug bite itch plus a good first aid kit. You might want to turn on your phone tracker & have a few power banks with you too—just as a precaution!! Oh & a good occlusive phone pouch.
