🏞️ Riding Mountain National Park: A 2-Day Wilderness Escape

Just 3 hours from Winnipeg, this park is pure magic—especially at golden hour! Here’s how our adventure unfolded: 🌅 Day 1: Lakeside Serenity & Starry Nights Arrived at dusk to pink-hued lake views—instant stress relief! Campfire essentials: Bought firewood at the gate, then spent the night sipping drinks under a Milky Way show 🌌. Cozy (but rustic!) cabin: Sleeps 6 (too spacious for small groups). Pro tip: Bring a down comforter—the provided mattresses are icy planks ❄️. Shared bathroom (a flashlight trek at midnight 💡). 🦬 Day 2: Bison Spotting & Hotpot Feasts Wildlife hunt: Saw herds of bison 🐂… but zero bears (sad trombone 🎵). Plan B: Returned to camp for a hotpot party—because carbs cure disappointment! 🍲 🌊 Day 3: Clear Lake’s Mirror Moment Clear Lake Boat Ramps = hidden gem! Glassy waters mirrored the sky, like Ontario’s Muskoka—but quieter. Almost missed our drive home because we couldn’t stop staring. #RidingMountain #WildernessVibes #CampfireChronicles
