Canada Lynx Tracking Trip in Ontario – January 21-26th 2024

Where:  Kenabeek, Ontario

Our Daily Practice:

Join us just north of Temegami on this educational and experiential trip into the north woods.  We will focus our scouting and tracking on finding sign, tracks and trails of the Canada Lynx.   With that said, we cannot guarantee what we will find, although many lynx have been spotted in the area we will be in the past.  There will be ample time to track and learn about many of the other animals that call this area home including wolves, moose, deer, marten, fisher, otter, flying squirrels, spruce grouse, snowshoe hare and many more.  We will spend our days on the land  travelling by snowshoe.  Wandering through the forests, swamps and bogs and across the frozen lakes of the Canadian Shield.  If you have tracked with us before, you know that these trips are about much more than just animal tracks.  We will spend time learning about the ecology and natural history of the area and learn to read the stories of the land from many different perspectives.

Evenings will be spent  researching and learning about what we saw in the field each day using our extensive library of field guides and books.  As well as sharing meals, laughter & building relationships while relaxing in the warm cabin.

Join us this winter as we practice the ancient skill of tracking and connecting to the land.
