Mapping My Tom Thomson Unicycle Route

I've been busy the past few days programming my route into my GPS and Google Maps. I am leaving nothing to navigational chance.

Here is my updated route with several checkpoints with estimated times of arrival based upon an 8:00am departure on Saturday May 8th, 2010. If all goes well, I will arrive back in Owen Sound around 2:45pm. I plan to have a major rest stop at Leith Church, the site of Tom Thomson's grave around 1pm.

Above is a photo of my father and my son taken during a hike a couple of years ago, on Highway 26, just a few kilometers from where I'll be crossing on the unicycle
