Details

This trail was closed most of the summer last year and many have asked to do it. The weather will be cool at night, so be prepared.

Everyone will go on the waitlist until the $40 registration has been recieved.

If committed to going, the $40/person registration fees can be emailed to me at pinkertonretreats@outlook.com.

We will spend 3 days and 2 nights on the trail.

We can plan to meet at PANP visitors center in Waskesiu townsite at 9:00 Saturday morning to aquire our permits. Then drive to the trailhead at Kingsmere Lake. We should be on the trail by 10:30. We will hike approximately 16kms to North End campsite, set up our tents and spend the night there. Sunday morning we will leave the tents setup and pack a day pack to hike approximately 7kms to and from the cabin. Then spend another night at North End.
Monday morning we will pack everything up and hike the 16 kms back to our vehicles.
If time permits we could stop for a group meal together in the Waskesiu townsite or in Prince Albert.
There are water sources at least every 5kms, but it must be filtered, boiled or treated. I've seen some that have not and have gotten quite ill.
We can arrange carpooling plans once we know who is all coming.
There are multiple sites at North End, so the more the merrier.
What to pack:

Tent, sleeping pad, sleeping bag or quilt, water treating system of your choice, water bottle, cooking gear and stove, food for 3 days on the trail. Good footwear for the trail and I suggest comfy shoes for around the camp, first aid kit, bug spray, bear spray,
If you are short any of the items needed, reach out to me, we can share water filters and cook systems.
I have hiked this trail many times over the years, in different seasons. Weather is always a concern, so bring gear for hot and sunny, as well as cool and rainy. It can change very quickly. Gotta love Saskatchewan weather.

There will be a 13.50/ night camping fee per person as well as a 10/night per campsite fee. So budget $40 for total fees for the weekend.

10 annual fee: if you haven't yet, please pay 10 annual fee. You can pay by cash or preferably, e-transfer eneudorf@hotmail.com
