The Sky Above Self-propelled in the outdoors

The (yet again) new Sky Above web site

  • Under construction

Temporary measures


Since my last "new" Sky Above version tanked a few weeks ago, I'm putting up a minimum of information on the Version 3.0, if I may call it that. For now it will be limited to listings of this year's trips. More soon.

Canoe trips

Open trips for 2008

19-27 June
Georgian Bay, Britt to Bustard Islands
Limit: 9 participants
Deposit: $50

This nine-day trip will begin and end in Britt, near Byng Inlet. Subject, as always, to weather conditions, we will visit Champlain Island, the Scott and MacGregor Islands and the wonderful Bustards, with their seemingly endless sheletered channels and inlets.

As always on Georgian Bay trips, I avoid dagverous conditions. Paddlers must still be aware that big waves may have to be negotiated at times. Each canoe must have at least one strong paddler.


15-20 August
Georgian Bay, Franklin, McCoy and nearby Islands
Limit: 9 participants
Deposit: $50

To me, the region encompassing Franklin Island, the McCoy Islands and the Minks is the heart and soul of the canoeists Georgian Bay. This trip will allow us to wander about them as fancy (and the weather) dictate.

As always on Georgian Bay trips, I avoid dagverous conditions. Paddlers must still be aware that big waves may have to be negotiated at times. Each canoe must have at least one strong paddler.
