This camp is set up specifically to support people with a disability. Easter Seals is a community based organisation in Canada and they have set up at least one camp in each province.
They have both a high ropes course and a low ropes course that can be used by a person in a wheelchair and they also have a winching system to get a person in a wheelchair onto the flying fox - fantastic.
I also loved this trail rider (being modelled by Jenny Bowker at above) - which is easy to manoeuvre and can get a wheelchair bound person out onto tracks and trails.
I took lots of photos of the ropes courses but I had to include this photo (left) of the whole gang as it was (it is bigger now) in front of an amazing background of the river, trees in Autumn colour and snow-capped mountains in the background.
It was about minus 2 degrees at this stage - our first cold day -but the view was well worth it.
Our thanks to Rob Harrison and his staff for showing us around and looking after us.
