Weighing of gear is mandatory if using a canoe cart. Paddlers can only place 60lbs worth of gear in each canoe as to not overload and damage the portage trails. All gear over and above this 60lbs must be carried.
The on-duty Facility Operator (BC Parks contractors) will note down all items allowed in the canoe, within the 60lb limit, on a registration card that you must carry around the circuit. It’s a good idea to have all of your gear organised before heading to the orientation. Items that do not contribute to the weight limit are: - PFDs (life jackets)
- Paddles
- Canoe rope
- Bailer/pump
- Canoe cart
- First Aid supplies
- Tarps
- Tarp rope
- Axe
- Drinking water for portage
- The canoe itself!
