It's hard to believe it has been 10 years already; the
time has flown by. Outdoor Adventure Canada is still the only web-based
magazine of its kind in Canada. You may read more about our journey
by reading Our History. Behind
the Scenes will give you some insight about some of the personalities
around here. Take some time and explore our new site and be sure to
visit the Outdoor
Forums to participate in a friendly discussion about backpacking,
paddling, or backcountry cooking.
We'd like to thank Our Sponsors
both past and present for helping us make Outdoor Adventure Canada what
it is today. Without your support we would not still be here.
With a beautiful new site to celebrate our 10th anniversary,
we also bring with it many new features such as Advenutre Cycling, Wilderness
Kids, and Pets in the Wild. You'll notice that some of the old features
have been removed and others renamed, but no worries, you'll still be
able to find many of the articles and gear reviews, from our past decade,
in OAC's Article Index.
Here is a quick peek at what is new in this issue...

of these was a long hike that took us up a very steep trail to a wonderful
lookout. The day was one of the hottest of the summer and I... read

Getting Squashed in Your Backpack? We often like to nosh on soups and stews and on the eighth
