We, as humanoids, have the privilege of adjusting our lifestyle, adventures and living conditions so to accommodate our own needs and standards of living during the upcoming frosty winter season. Some of us pass the time by reading good books, taking up a new hobby or spending more time with family. Some of us hunker down by […]
Winter is so amazing in so many ways. Not only does the landscape and scenery change its dress during the season but some people change their attitudes. You can learn so much about the winter season from its people. Much of it is good and some is bad. People sometimes forget that winter in Canada […]
Yogi Berra once said, “When you arrive at a fork in the road, take it.“. That pretty well sums it up when traveling the roads sightseeing in Canada. The forks in the road in Canada – the exit roads off the the main highways and freeways – are the routes which take you on some […]
One adventure season is ending while another begins on the west and east coasts of Canada. The late fall, winter and early spring seasons are fast approaching and with their arrival the winds increase in velocity, the rains arrive more frequently, the snow falls at the higher elevations and the temperatures dip. To some this weather change is […]
Canada off road adventures can mean many things. Off roading can be referring to 4x4ing, dirt biking and/or ATVing. The peak seasons for off roading in the backcountry of Canada is from late spring to early fall when the gravel roads and trails are driest. In many parts of Canada forestry and mining are the economic […]
I love Canada’s parks. I aim to visit every one of them in my life time. And, lately, I am finding it is getting allot easier to see them all as there are more parks becoming less attractive to explore due to funding cuts, lay offs and poor decisions. I am discovering during my cross […]
Recently we packed up our curiosity and visited the sweet tooth of Canada, otherwise known as, “Canada’s Chocolate Town” in an effort to research the province for our www.CanadaEH.net Travel and Adventure Website Network. “Canada’s Chocolate Town” is located on the banks of the St. Croix River in the small community of St. Stephen, New […]

September is one of the best months to visit in Canada to avoid crowds. There is less traffic on the roads.

In the tourism industry […]
This week we packed up the video and camera gear, sleeping bags and tent and headed to Grand Manan Island in New Brunswick, Canada. New Brunswick is a province with lots to offer travelers and explorers but with little money to market itself globally. This does not mean it does not have much to offer. […]
This past August Long Weekend we planned for another engagement and tussle with Mother Nature while exploring one of her remote lakes in the backcountry forests of New Brunswick, Canada! How could we not? The sun was out, the skies were blue and we were raring to go early in the morning with plenty of […]
The west coast was a great place to visit with my blue heeler, Sadie. I found a great hotel that welcomed us both and we explored a number of fantastic dog parks and beaches in between visiting with friends.
Interaction with Mother Nature has proven – over and over again – to positively alter a person’s body, mind and overall well being. A 2010 study in the Journal of Environmental Psychology indicates, “being outside in nature makes people feel more alive.” The professor and author goes on to say, “Nature is fuel for the […]
Sun, sand, surf and sandcastle. What is there not to like. The sun is hot, the sand disappears in between my toes and the sea water splashes up my thighs. My mind wanders as I walk the maze of sandcastles on the the sandy beaches in the New River Beach Provincial Park located in New Brunswick, Canada. […]
A sound and alert “Wildlife Radar” system is essential for all outdoor adventures in Canada! For those traveling the country via our highways and backcountry roads there is no shortage of wildlife sightings. But… sometimes the sightings take a keen eye and a heightened sense of awareness to spot and this is what we refer […]
My bother and I planned for another day with nature this weekend… it is something we make time for on a regular basis. Work is bliss, satisfying and gratifying. It pays the bills. However… nature is alive, something real, something fresh. Time outdoors is like hitting a recharge button. A balance of work and life […]
Too much of one thing is never good for you, unless it is love and nature. Lots of love and lots of nature together is even better for you physically and mentally. Families and friends, together, outside exploring nature seems to be on everyone’s list of “Greatest Memories”. Camping trips, road trips, boat cruises, hiking […]
Every summer RVs, motorists, motorbikes and cyclists pack up their gear and take to the highways and backcountry roads of Canada. To many living in Canada and to some visiting Canada the sunshine months screams out, “Road Trip!” Traveling the roads of Canada is a great way to see large sections of our country. We […]
The community of Revelstoke, British Columbia, Canada is smack dab in the middle of nature surrounded by national, provincial and community parks, man-made lakes, alpine mountains and waterway rivers. The Selkirk and Monashee Mountains surround the community. The Columbia and Illecillewaet Rivers are the two waterways flowing into the community. Upper Arrow Lake and Lake Revelstoke […]
What to do? Where to go? When to do it when exploring in Golden, British Columbia, Canada is the question to ask yourself before arriving. There is so much eye candy – it would make any community jealous. Kootenay village is engulfed by its mountains, roaring like its rivers and wild like its wildlife. It is a place […]
