Back in early June, we drove up to Halfmoon Lake, north of Bon Accord (we were going to a greenhouse up that way so put the boats on). Access is through the Halfmoon Lake Campground and there is a user fee (I can't recall how much, maybe $10 for the car?).

McLeod Lake, Carson-Pegasus Provincial Park
In late July, we drove up to Carson-Pegasus Provincial Park, just northeast of Whitecourt to paddle the conjoined McLeod Lake and Carson Lake. This was a 200km drive each way, but was worth it in the end. There is also nearby little McLeod Lake (just to the east) if you want to add on to an existing trip.

Lessard Lake
In late July, I ventured out to Lessard Lake, just off Highway 43 about an hour out of town. The perimeter of the lake is about 8km and it took me about 90 minutes to make my away around. It was a bit of an overcast day, so the pictures are drab

Long Lake, North Access
In mid July, I drove up to Long Lake, just south of Athabasca and west of Highway 2. I'd previously paddled here out of the Forfar Recreation Park on the southeastern shore. This time I want to try the Long Lake Campground operated by the county of Athabasca on the northern end of the lake.
