For more than 12 years now, Outdoor Adventure Canada
has been the only web-based magazine of its kind in Canada.
Take some time and explore our site and be sure to visit
our Facebook
page to participate in a friendly discussion about backpacking,
paddling, trail running or backcountry cooking or to share a trip report
with us.

backpacking, canoeing and other activites but you'll still be able to
find many of our past articles and gear reviews in OAC's Article
Index.
