Website updates
March 01, 2022 - 10:29 AM
The Galleries page has been removed as its software is no longer being updated and is incompatible with the website authoring software. Trip-log#148 is an example of the updates taking place with respect to the galleries - Each day of a trip-log now has a gallery embedded at the bottom of the page. All future trip-logs and past ones will reflect these changes over time. I apologize for the removal of the gallery section but it had to be done. In time they will all be restored in the new format.
Another update is the removal of the contact page. Last year the contact page had become the target of bot attacks and subsequently I now receive a lot of junk email through it.
I can still be contacted via the "contact" link at the bottom of every web page next to the copyright. Clicking on this link will open your email client.

The full season 1 of “markinthepark” is now on Youtube.
It was lots of fun to be shooting a series about Algonquin Park.
There was pain, sweat, joy and memories, both old and new. What is a canoe trip without any of these?
I simply just can’t get enough of Algonquin Park. I hope that this video series will spark a light inside you and get you out there!

Website renamed!
March 24, 2018 - 06:45 PM
Effective March 3rd, 2018 “Mark’s Algonquin Park Sampler” is no longer a sampler web site of sorts of Algonquin Park. Rather, I now spend more time in Algonquin Park, therefore justifying the change in name. The website along with a proper logo (That even looks like me!) will now assume its proper name associated with its originating URL: ”markinthepark.com”. Read More...
