Sample Itinerary
Day 1: Lake Opeongo (10:00am)
• Depart from south end of lake and travel north to campsite located between the north and east arm of Opeongo

Day 2: Opeongo - Annie Bay
• Pack up and leave site after breakfast and paddle across the east arm of Opeongo then south to Annie Bay. Camp for the evening at a site near the portage at south end of Annie Bay

Day 3: Annie Bay - Booth Lake
• Travel down through the Opeongo River and over a series of portages. Where the river turns into Tattler Lake we will set up camp for the evening between Booth and Tattler Lakes

Day 4: Rest Day
• This day will be spent exploring the area around camp, and taking a well deserved lounge in the hammocks.

Day 5: Booth Lake - Farm Lake
• Depart camp in the am. We will cross Booth, Kitty and then a final portage into Farm Lake. Once on Farm Lake we will set camp at the south end of the lake.

Day 6: Depart
• Pack up for the final morning and paddle a short distance to the take out.

This trip can be altered in many ways. It can be turned into a 5 day rather than a 6 day. Also, with advanced notice, a ranger cabin is available for rent for the final evening. We will do a vehicle shuffle prior to our departure, to arrange a vehicle at our take out point, as it is different than our put in.
