Have you seen the colours on these kayak paddles? Not only do they look fantastic, but the Tango Fibreglass Paddles by Aqua-Bound are light and stiff with a carbon shaft and fibreglass blade. Zack offers all the details in this short review video. https://youtu.be/Yw0KHIyn3i0
More hot tents and stoves have arrived! This is the last order of the season. Once we sell out, we won't be getting any more until the next winter season approaches. These tents are a terrific way to enjoy winter camping in luxury. They're also made in Canada with materials sourced from North America. Pictured above is the Winter Classic 2 by Esker. https://www.frontenacoutfitters.com/winter-tents/

Picking the perfect PFD as a gift is a daunting task - it's tough enough choosing one for yourself - so we put this video together to help your decision. Zack talks about how to choose the right size and other things to consider. ... If you gift a PFD, and this guide helped, share this video with the person who receives the gift. Show them the thought you put into it. https://youtu.be/OLQa0A43BE8
This 24-inch bucksaw by Esker doesn’t just have traditional beauty crafted into it; it’s also super functional and makes light work of cutting wood.

Plus, it's designed and manufactured in Canada It comes in either this stunning Birdseye maple or dark walnut
There are only ‘snow’ many days left before the lakes freeze over. If you’re pushing your paddling season late, we hope you’re being safe and smart about it!

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas from us at Frontenac Outfitters. Here's a little paddler's poem for you to whisper to your kayak as you tuck it in for bed tonight. A Paddlers Christmas Poem ‘Twas the night before Christmas at our house on the water,...Continue reading
Our camp craft selection is growing. We now have Council Tool axes and hatchets. These are some reliable tools that, if maintained, can be passed on for generations. This company has been making firefighting equipment for over 90 years, so they know a thing or two about quality steel and well-made tools. You can find this one and more on our website. https://www.frontenacoutfitters.com/camp/campcraft/
In case you missed it; We will be closed this Sunday, Monday and Tuesday for inventory. On Wednesday, we will begin our seasonal hours. We will be open by chance or appointment from Monday to Friday 9 am - 5 pm.
Camper Christina is pushing the paddling season as long as she can! If you’re pushing limits like Christina, please make sure you’re aware of the genuine danger that cold water presents, and prepare for the worst. The shock from hitting cold water can cause you to gasp and inhale water. That’s scary enough, but if you’re in cold water without the proper gear, it doesn’t take long for hypothermia to set in. Now consider when you - if you get to shore, you’ll be soaking wet in ...cold air. If you’re not wearing a dry suit or something like it, you’re still at risk of hypothermia. CamperChristina.com is aware of the risk presented here, but she's comfortable enough with her skills, is prepared with the proper gear, and, as always, she’s wearing her PFD. The only things stopping her are the shortcomings of a canoe when it meets ice. Have fun, but be safe! https://fb.watch/24B68FmY90/
It’s getting a little cramped at the shop!
Now Im excited for winter! A little backyard test run. #eskeroutdoor #classic2 #hottents #wintercamping #itwillneverbethesame #infrontenac #ygk #thefreedomofperformance @eskeroutdoor
We got a new shipment at the shop yesterday. Check out these gorgeous knives by Helle Knives of Norway. You can feel the craftsmanship in the grip, and you can see the blade can take a workload. Any of these would make an excellent companion in the woods.
Only a few more days left to get some sweet deals on sweet meals. 10% off Happy Yak and Backpacker's Pantry Freeze Dried Meals and Freeze Dried ingredients when you use the code ‘backcountryhunger10’ at checkout before December 21st.

Seasons greetings from all of us at Frontenac Outfitters! We wish you happy holidays and a great New Year (hopefully better than the last). Stay safe and although visiting is discouraged, we hope you still take the time to reach out to relatives, loved ones and friends. Let them know you’re just a call or text away! We also want to remind you that we're closed from the 24th to the 27th. We'll re-open on the 28th to serve all your smiling faces!
The days are getting shorter, and the nights are getting a lot cooler. When you get into camp, and you just want something warm and hearty, that's also easy and fast - freeze-dried and dehydrated meals are the way to go. We carry a variety of Happy Yak Express meals. We've got some breakfast choices along with dinner/lunch options. We've got vegan options and meals with meat. If you're feeling creative, we also have their freeze-dried chicken and beef so you can round out that meal without having the extra weight.
That warm weather was a wonderful surprise in mid-November. We think Tripper would agree.
A couple of us went kayak fishing on Buck Lake early Sunday morning, and it was a brisk 1 degree . BRRR! Let us outfit you for this cold water paddling. We've got an assortment of dry suits, dry tops and bottoms, neoprene tops and bottoms, and wetsuits! We've also got gloves and socks. Paddle later in the season and get a head start in the spring, but please be safe! #TheFreedomOfPerformance
We’re dreaming of a white Christmas Hopefully we get to strap some snowshoes on for a holiday hike! Do you have any holiday traditions that involve the outdoors?
We received more @deltakayaks BUT don't get too excited; most of these have already been sold and this is only half of the order! We’re being told the second half will arrive in January. If you’re looking for a canoe, kayak, or SUP for 2021, please just give us a quick call and let us know. We want to make sure that you’re not waiting until this time next year for your boat. If you’re waiting on a Delta Kayak, and you haven’t received an email or phone call yet, don’t fret! Yours is on its way.#deltakayaks #kayak #seakayak #kayaking #paddling #thefreedomofperformance #ygk #infrontenac #frontenacprovincialpark #frontenacoutfitters #deltaboats #deltayak
The fall sale continues for all in-stock canoes. We’ve got some beautiful boats and some great deals.
#CanoeFlipChallenge We have been nominated to do the Canoe Flip challenge by CamperChristina.com and Keith from KIHD Products to support Project Canoe. Project Canoe is an organization that gets kids and teens canoe camping. The challenge is to flip the canoe from the ground to above your head to 'portage position' as many times as you can in one minute. For each flip you complete, you donate $5 and then nominate 3 other people. Instead of nominating 3 other people, we've in...cluded our own twist in hopes of raising more money. We will match, dollar for dollar, the first 5 people to tag us in their canoe flip challenge. Let's raise some money! Use the tag #frontenacoutfitters or #TheFreedomOfPerformance with your #CanoeFlipChallenge tag. We'll be searching for it! Project Canoe focuses on finding kids that otherwise may not have the opportunity to experience the wonders of backcountry canoe camping. To learn more about the organization, follow the link below. https://canoe.org Share this video and challenge others!
CamperChristina.com released this fun video for the holidays.

Canoe, kayak and SUP rentals are coming to a close for the season. Have you rented from us this year or in the past? If so, where did our boat take you? Maybe it was for a relaxing day paddling a back lake or lazy river. Maybe it was on a multi-day camping trip. We’d love to hear about it!
We’ve still got fishing kayaks in stock and the soft water season is coming to an end! Check out these awesome vessels and the ideal set ups for different styles of fishing at Frontenac Outfitters!

One of our Pro-Staff, Ben, and one of our sales staff, Eric, recently took a couple of fishing kayaks camping in Frontenac Provincial Park. They had a catch and cook and Ben hooked into a nice Pike. Ben creates all-season camping and fishing videos and he will be doing a lot more work with us in the near future. Check out and subscribe to his channel, Conjuring Rock, on YouTube for his past and upcoming adventures. https://www.youtube.com/conjuringrock
