Some very good savings available on the Black Friday specials right now. I bought a Fireant from them and have used it day tripping when I just want to make some hot water for tea, coffee or rehydrating. I also bought a Trangia style alcohol stoves that works with it. I did buy a windscreen...

What are some good places that have stripper plans available? I'm at least a year out from a build but that leaves plenty of time for thinking and planning.

This is it. My first wilderness camping trip ever. The good news is I was bringing my canoe and my Sweetheart. Our first vacation together, been dating since December 2013. I don’t have a lot of camping experience and I really didn’t want to look stupid on this trip in front of the one I...

I just wanted to say thank you to those of you who have answered my many questions as I strive to learn canoeing and canoe camping. I also want to thank Robin for giving me a place that I could do so. Through all of your help I was able to safely complete my first primitive canoe camping trip...

I just picked up 30L and a pack/harness to carry it with and I'm looking for best use suggestions. I also ordered some barrel organizing bags to split up breakfast, lunch and dinner meals inside of it. My plan is to take the barrel out of the pack and stash it each night after making sure it's...

I'm about a month out from a little trip and I'm starting to think I'll forget something. I'm starting to pack and I should make a gear checklist. Have you ever forgotten something - or didn't realize you needed it until it was too late? How did you work around the missing or wished for item?

I found a 1994 Mowhawk Challenger 14' Solo canoe on Craigslist and decided I needed it. The seat had some kind of missing back brace and the ends of the thwarts were starting to rot. I've paddled the canoe a few times and enjoyed it but wanted to try and introduce some tumblehome to it. I...

If I own a royalex canoe and wanted to make a stripper version of it how would I go about it? How do I efficiently make forms? I was thinking of making half, vertically split half patterns that I can use to lay out a starboard and port side full form pattern. Can you follow the idea? It...

Makers of the ever so handy Bungee Dealee Bob tie down/speed lashing/secure all. The more creative you are the better they are. They also sell a reflector oven that looks great but I have no personal experience with. http://www.oldscoutoutdoorproducts.com

Testing - I tried replying to the Photo of the Day thread and never saw my response. I figured I try a new test thread to see if that works.

Went on a group trip to Blue Mountain Lake. We parked on Route 28 and put in at the public launch that's clearly marked. From there we paddled North West between Long Island and Osprey Island and then heading West past Bluff Point to the trail leading to Castle Rock. Once at the trailhead I...

What canoes have you owned? How and why did you part ways? I'll start ;) Mad River Tahoe 14 - Super Duper wide and stable 14' tandem in Royalex. Used it for day trips and duck hunting. Got a dog and a duck boat and wished for a canoe with better glide so on Craigslist it went. I'm guessing...

I have a Yakima Rack on my truck and need to transport my pole on the rack. What's the best way to do it? I really fear that it will slip and create a missile hazard. I've been thinking of all kinds of goofy options. How do you do it?

How do you outfit your canoe? Do you make any modifications? I've already drilled some holes in the thwarts and rigged up some shock cording and "push button" lashings in one of mine. I'd like to see what others do to make the canoe a little more user/tripping friendly. What I have done...

Blydenburgh County Park's main feature is Stump Pond. Stump Pond is man made and was created to drive the Mill that's still standing by the beach you launch from. Suffolk County opened up the pond to canoes and kayaks in 2013, before you had to rent a jonboat. You must use the park's Northern...
