I thought I would give it a try and it worked really well. I was able to reuse one of the logs in the morning but the other burned too much and had to be replaced. Thanks for watching Alex!
Great to follow you through a winter adventure. Always glad to hear of an addition to the family. I first started to follow you on your brook trout fishing experiences in Algonquin and have learned alot. Planning my first solo into the park this spring ..... so stoked !! Anyway keep doing what you're doing.
Hey Brent, it is great to hear you've enjoyed the content and have been able to learn a bit from it as well, I really appreciate the support! First solo, that's awesome good luck! Always happy to chat if you have any questions. Thanks for following my adventures!
Awesome!! I hope you enjoy your winter camping trip in Algonquin. I'm happy to help inspire others to get out in the winter ❄ thanks for supporting my videos 🙂
Alex, You are doing really nice work with your videos. I also enjoy seeing a new way to do things and the slices in the logs for the grate support was a dandy. Keep the videos coming.
Backcountry camping permits are required in Algonquin Park. They can be purchased online at reservations.ontarioparks.com/ or by calling 1-888-ONT-PARK (1-888-668-7275). Thanks for watching!
That's too bad. I agree with Alex, not having the right clothing and gear can make it a miserable experience especially in extreme cold temperatures. Hopefully you can convince other friends to join you, Algonquin is just as beautiful in the winter. Thanks for checking out the video!
They're alright, I want to try some of their other flavors. I got them for a great deal. I still rather homemade dehydrated meals but the simplicity of bagged meals is great. Thanks for watching.
Great video alex. Nice way to hold that grill looks like algonquin doesn’t have much snow. Where did you start the trip to meet the old rail line for parking
Hey Clifford, unfortunately, there hasn't been much snow in the Algonquin area. It's the least I've seen in years. I started my hike where the railroad bed crosses hwy 60 around km 22. I was dropped off there so I didn't have to worry about parking.
Exactly something I want to give it a try. In the situation like yours... how would I go about booking it at OntarioParks? As in ... just choose nearest allowed access point to book it?
You can book backcountry permits online or on the phone. There are a few access points to choose from including "Other Remote Winter Backcountry". Thanks for watching!
Never saw that way of supporting a grill with two pieces of log .
I liked it too. Pretty cool huh?
Same here , great idea ! And also the bottle under the snow to keep it from freezing
Me too !!!! Love it as I have seen quite a few people burn their food. Same with the bottle under the snow.

Nothing more peaceful than winter camping in the snow. It always surprises me when water doesn’t freeze buried in the snow.
A great time to be out. I just can't wait for more snow now. Thanks for watching!
Wonderful way to clear a fellows head, can't think of a better way. :) Thanks for sharing. :) :)
I really enjoy solo trips. Thanks, Jacqueline

Heading solo to Algonquin tomorrow for the first time to try winter camping at Mew Lake. Looking forward to trying this one day. Thanks for inspiring🙏

Love the grill setup. Pretty clever!
Just thought of it on the spot, it worked out pretty well. Thanks for watching!
I like the great grate setup...Nice relaxing video to watch.
Awesome, thank you Jay!
Nice overnighter Alec! Like how you used the grill with the logs.
Hey David, ya I hadn't been out in a while before that! Sometimes a quick, simple trip is all I need. Thanks for watching 🙂
Alex, You are doing really nice work with your videos. I also enjoy seeing a new way to do things and the slices in the logs for the grate support was a dandy. Keep the videos coming.
Thank you very much! I have lots of winter camping planned for this winter.
Nice!! First time I’ve seen someone notch out logs to hold the grill…. Keep ‘em coming!! Hopefully you get some lakers this season 🎣
I hope so too! I'm planning a long winter trip in a prime lake trout area. Thanks for checking out the video!
Hi I want to ask is there is this need to book it at the Ontario Parks website in backcountry camping or just go it
Backcountry camping permits are required in Algonquin Park. They can be purchased online at reservations.ontarioparks.com/ or by calling 1-888-ONT-PARK (1-888-668-7275). Thanks for watching!
Great video Alec. Like the idea of the rack holder with the logs.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching Stephen
Lovely video. Looked like a fun adventure! I really appreciated seeing the notches you make in logs for your grill. Smart!
Thanks, Andrea. It was an idea that worked out. The diameter of the supporting logs was just big enough to provide good support.
Nice video Alec!
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
nice shots, enjoy the relaxed pace and chill vibes :) wish I had friends to do the winter part of algonquin, last one I took said never again heh
If people aren't equipped for winter ,as with a winter sleeping bag, it can be a terrible experience.
That's too bad. I agree with Alex, not having the right clothing and gear can make it a miserable experience especially in extreme cold temperatures. Hopefully you can convince other friends to join you, Algonquin is just as beautiful in the winter. Thanks for checking out the video!
Nice relaxing video Alec. How do you fid those Canadian Tire dehydrated meals? I have been tempted to try some.
They're alright, I want to try some of their other flavors. I got them for a great deal. I still rather homemade dehydrated meals but the simplicity of bagged meals is great. Thanks for watching.

Great video . What brand and size is the tarp you used for this video ?
It's an Aqua Quest 10ft x 13ft. Thanks for watching!
Is three slabs of meat your minimum when under a tarp in the winter?
😂 I eat more meat cold camping that's for sure! Got to keep my body warm overnight. You should try it out.
