#KoralTheKayak
Some trips, no matter the length, are more memorable than others. I will not soon forget my wee #expedition with #KoralTheKayak down 11 km of the #WhitsonRiver in early May. My buddy and I ventured out for an early-season run, and we both ended up swimming...

On this day, Sudbury's Whitson River got the better of us
The river was cold, its water levels high and its current flowing faster than normal. We also learned what to do if you capsize.

The #VermilionRiver in #GreaterSudbury has many faces... This stretch, between Grassy and Ella Lakes, is verdant and lush. #KoralTheKayak, my buddy Lynn, her #kayak and I took a stroll down the Verm on Sat, at a leisurely pace. At times, I just floated with the current. Like #ForestBathing by kayak.

The best way to spend a Friday night in #GreaterSudbury? It starts with a paddle and a boat... For me, it is either #KoralTheKayak or #QuillTheCanoe... Add some soft water and the wild spaces of #NorthernOntario, and you got yourself a pretty good date ❤️ ☀️ 🌲

Paddling the north under Boreal skies. Doesn't get better than that

A few pix from my annual #SnowPaddle last Nov on #MahzenazingRiver, near #KillarneyOntario. It was a superb experience. I like to end the season w #KoralTheKayak by doing a snow paddle somewhere in the #GreaterSudbury area. We really lucked out last year. #KoralAdventureSeries #NorthernOntario

In early October, #KoralTheKayak and I spent a glorious day on #MijinemungshingLake in #LakeSuperiorProvincialPark. The area is largely #BorealForest, so lots of #conifers glowing in yellow and gold. The drive in was so pretty - like passing thru the sun. The #kayaking season isn't over just yet...

Star reporter @mkkeown.bsky.social paddled her beloved #kayak, #KoralTheKayak, along the #WhitsonRiver last wknd. Story to come...
The #WhitsonRiver in #GreaterSudbury under #BlueSkies and warm May temps. That river was definitely an ambitious project, but totally worthwhile. Story to come... Welcome to the 2025 paddling season. #Adventure awaits. #KoralTheKayak #KoralAdventureSeries #NorthernOntario #WaterbodiesOfTheWards

Time well spent on Saturday with #KoralTheKayak. Conditions were perfect - not a cloud in the sky - and the #tamarack trees were aglow…

Star reporter @mkkeown.bsky.social took a rip along the #VermilionRiver on Saturday with her boat, #KoralTheKayak. Just look at those reflections!!!

#KoralTheKayak and I spent a beautiful Sat afternoon on a creek in the #KillarneyON area. It was filled w photogenic rock formations; the #peepers were singing; and I saw lots of waterfowl. I love watching a river wake from its winter slumber. It felt so good to be back in the proverbial saddle.

A perfect Friday night with #KoralTheKayak in #GreaterSudbury. There is so much life along the river after dark... Night paddling creates such special interactions with #nature. #NorthernOntario really shines in the #summer

With #KoralTheKayak on #SamMartinLake. It was a 💜 day w oodles of #wildlife interactions, including a close encounter w a mama #bear and her 2 cubs. This is a gorgeous lake tucked into the #Boreal forest in #NorthernOntario. I would really like to know who Sam Martin was, and why he got a lake. 🐻🧸

What an epic #SnowPaddle on Saturday, in the #KillarneyOntario area. My buddy, her red Necky #kayak, #KoralTheKayak and I headed to #MahzenazingCreek to explore a new area. We were not disappointed. Conditions were ideal and the snow was fresh. It was so gorgeous. What a way to usher in December ❤️❄️🌲

In Sept as part of a 3-week #camping trip thru northern #Quebec and #NorthernOntario, I spent a day with #KoralTheKayak on #LacLaPeche in @gatineaupark.gc.ca. It was a gorgeous lake (and creek) under cloudless #BlueSkies w a ton of #wildlife, inc. 2 deers and 1000s of fish. La Pêche is well named.
