🌾 Spirit Sands, Manitoba 🌾
Tucked away in Spruce Woods Provincial Park, the Spirit Sands are a surreal slice of desert in the heart of the Canadian prairies. Often mistaken for true desert, this ancient sand dune area is actually a remnant of the post-glacial past — one of the only places in Manitoba where sand dunes still remain. 🏜️

📍 Spruce Woods Provincial Park
🥾 Hiking Trails: Spirit Sands Trail (4–6km options) + Devil’s Punch Bowl
🔥 Indigenous Significance: Sacred to local First Nations, believed to be home to spirits
🐾 Wildlife: Look for hognose snakes, coyotes, cacti, and even prickly pear
🌞 Best Time to Visit: Spring & fall for cooler hiking temps
👣 Pro Tip: Go early to avoid the heat — the sand can reach desert-like temps midday!

🌬️ This landscape is like nothing else in Manitoba — shifting dunes, eerie silence, and stories whispered on the wind. A sacred, powerful place to walk with intention.

Beach’n it today. 🏖️

We left our home in southern Ontario on the 7/7 portal day 🪞
So far we have seen a bear, a deer, an eagle & several loons, we visited with family in the Soo for a few days, and we have driven just under 2000 kms in about 20-23 hours.

We stumbled across a sweet little place to camp just over the Manitoba boarder… in fact, we totally missed any signage to let us know we exited Ontario 😂

Lots of setting up and taking down of camp - we decided to park it here a few days, and this morning added on an extra day.
We. Are. Tired.

Super fun adventuring along the way - waterfalls, hikes, pictographs, visiting a dam and making new friends along the way. We also experienced a torrential non-stop downpour like we have never seen before, that went on for hoooooours through the night and day. 😳

The last couple days we have been checking out some local spots, enjoyed dinner out last night - no cooking or cleaning - YAY!

The massive CME (coronal mass ejection) from a couple days ago, I’m sure has added to our exhaustion. We are feeling called to REST, relax and recharge at the beach today - before hitting the road again tomorrow.

Gus has been a little out of sorts with the travel, especially now being solo without his sister Maui to look after him. Which - we have discovered through this trip with Gus 🐾 that he is VERY special needs, and our beloved Maui girl - she really, really was such a massive support and guide dog for wee Gus. We knew they were a team, but now that our girl is gone we have a much greater understanding of Gus’ blindness and anxiety that he’s had for over a decade.

So here we 3 are, learning and experiencing new things together.
