Upon arrival participants will be greeted by a guide and receive a 1 hour presentation. The guide will explain all the details of driving the dog sled teams through the wilderness.
Participants will then go to the kennel and help gather the dogs for the teams and tie down all the expedition gear onto their sleds. When the entire expedition is ready, we start with the command "Ready, Let's GO!" , the teams are released and are excited running down the trails.
Each day you clients be travelling in the beautiful wilderness setting of the Algonquin Provincial Park and and the Almaguin Forests. Chocpaw has have over 200 km of varying dogsled trails for clients to experience. Plenty of opportunity to take pictures along the journey.
2 people per sled, taking turns driving and sitting in the basket (or on the gear in the basket). Client teams consist of 5-6 dogs. The guide will always be in the lead of the expedition while travelling down the trail. Our participants will learn how to handle the dogs and drive the sleds under the supervision of the guides.
Food:
Our delicious breakfasts and dinners are cooked together by the group at the base camps. Lunches are served on the trail mid-day. The final lunch will be held at the Office, and the group will get to enjoy the best warm chili ever tasted while having a final debrief with your guide.
Camps:
Chocpaw Expeditions has 7 base camps nestled in the forest of both Algonquin Provincial Park and The Almaguin Forest. Each camp is made up of Canvas Prospector Tents that have been pre built and set up in the fall season. Participants sleep on raised sleeping platforms and the guides stoke the wood oven stoves throughout the night. Each of camps are on a body of water. At camps all participants help feed, water and love the sled dogs, also help with camp cooking, collecting fire wood and hauling water from lake or river. If time allows in the evening there is time for bonfires, star gazing, snow showing and wolf howls.
Additional Information:
The order of tours and activities within this itinerary may vary due to weather conditions and other contributing factors that must be taken into account by the guides when planning your tour. You will receive the exact order of activities once you arrive on site. The far north can have fluctuating and unpredictable weather with very strong temperature differences. The safety of guests and animals comes first, and for this reason, we reserve the right to change the itinerary and intensity of activities if and when needed. This involves both adjustments due to insufficient snow (meaning we cannot drive the sleds) or too much snow (snowstorms and extreme cold can cause accidents and various other problems). The required adjustments and fallback options in rare cases are based on the day-to-day conditions and can be compensated by shorter or longer daily stages, alternative accommodations, or even single day trips. In extremely rare cases we may organise alternative transport (ie. cars, quad bikes, etc).
