Legend
Trips
Completed expeditions and the aspirational list — Temagami to Ungava, Wabakimi to the Bay. Unique categories, free metatags, a pin and a route for each.
Library
Everything in the wannigan in one place — trips, documents, maps and photographs — classified from actual contents rather than filenames. Rows flagged needs review are the ones the read could not settle. Edit or remove any row; changes save in this browser and export as CSV for the register.
| Title | Kind | Waterway | Prov | Region | Era | Type | Tags |
|---|
Media
Every photograph, map sheet, scanned page, video and recording in the register, classified from its actual content rather than its filename. Re-file anything to a trip, edit its title, or flag it.

Itinerary Builder
Click the map to add a stop, or build by hand: + Add stop / + Add day, ▲▼ to move a stop, + to insert below, ✕ to delete. The day header moves or deletes a whole day. Coordinates are editable — type lat, lng. Tick “night” to end a day. Everything saves to the Trip Plan selected above.
| # | Stop & notes | Type | Lat, Lng | Leg | Night |
|---|
Rows edit in place: type over a name, retype the coordinates, drag a row or use ▲▼ to reorder, ✕ to delete. The day header moves or deletes a whole day. CSV and Excel mirror the outfitting-workbook itinerary (Day · From · To · coordinates · distance · notes); the .xlsx opens natively in Google Sheets. GPX loads straight into a Garmin. Legs are straight lines between your via-points — pin the bends of the river on the Topographic basemap.
Basemap
Meal Planner
Attach a Trip Plan and the grid sizes itself from that plan’s crew and day count. Meals move, edit and delete; the food list recalculates from the per-person ratios in the 2017 Otoskwin workbook.
Gear Planner
The outfit, sized off the same Trip Plan as the meals — canoes and paddles from party size, barrels and fuel from crew × days. Tick items as they are packed.
Logistics Planner
Charter, shuttle, permits, hospital, and who at home is expecting a check-in. Attached to a Trip Plan and carried into the workbook.
Trip Pipeline
Every plan drafted in the Itinerary Builder lands here. A plan advances as its gates go green; at Final it moves into the Trips atlas as Aspirational or Completed.
About the Wannigan
The wannigan is the wooden trip box at the heart of Keewaydin-style tripping. The rat is the tripper who lives out of one. This is the digital wannigan: journals, route guides, outfitting models, topo scans, and a century of route knowledge — mapped.
“Go slow, get there fast; go fast, don’t get there at all.”
Prototype notes: edits and itineraries persist in this browser (localStorage); production moves storage and auth to Supabase (Postgres + PostGIS). Routes and park boundaries are approximations — production imports your KML/Garmin archive, the Ontario GeoHub park layer, and OCRs the Tripnote scan series. Document links open the originals in Google Drive.
Where the classification comes from
Every document, map and photograph in this atlas is described by one register. The site ships with a CSV copy so it always works offline. Point it at a published Google Sheet and it reads that instead, on every page load — edit the Sheet, refresh the atlas, done.
Deleting is local until you republish. Removing an asset or a photo hides it in this browser only — the register the site ships with is untouched. “Export register with my edits” writes the whole register back out with your deletions and edits applied; replace data/assets.csv with that file and redeploy, and the change holds for everyone who opens the atlas, in this and every later version.
To publish: in the Sheet, File → Share → Publish to web, choose the Assets tab and Comma-separated values, then paste the link above. A plain /spreadsheets/d/<id> link also works if the file is shared as “anyone with the link can view”.
