Killarney
Provincial Park is about 3 and a half hours north of Toronto
and is one of the few wilderness parks of Ontario.
This is a mid-spring camping so arriving on a wet, cold, rainy
day was somewhat expected.
There
were only a few people around. Privacy was never an issue. First
of our 3-day camp was a little bit dissapointing. We were both
wet and chilly, couldn't do much.
The
next day was just perfect. We immediately went to the nearby
beach and sat, dipping our feet into the water, while we watched
the wildlife and other visitors enjoy a beautiful day.

When I get back to Ontario, my bootprints will be all over
this backpacking trail. After a chill from the cold water,
we decided to hike part of the Silhouette Trail.
We
hiked up to the first backcountry site just to feel sorry we
couldn't go any farther, and see more of this astonishing view...
looking over the Silver Mountain.
