The Plan

I expect to be aboard pretty much all the time for the next six weeks or so, and this segment of my journey ends in Chicago.

You may want to get out a map. I’m currently just north of Trenton. There are basically three major segments.

Trent Severn Waterway: I’m on it now, heading to Rice Lake, Peterborough, Bobcageon, etc. Google it.

Georgian Bay: after exiting the Trent Severn it’s north through the small boat passage up to Killarney, then exploring the North Channel. I expect to be leaving that area around August month end.

Lake Michigan: from Macinac down the lake to Chicago. Think I’ll go down the western side. I think of this as a delivery trip. Pick the weather and scoot. It’s 300 miles down the lake, and generally speaking I don’t enjoy open water.
