Thank you Erica - I will contact them today!!

Thank you Griz, very thoughtful, For those of you that have not been through this, his words are as spot-on as can be- "Then to add to the burden there are all the legal and administrative changes that happen to the survivor immediately after. the mounds of cold, impersonal paperwork you must...

All, The past few months have been a blur. I cannot believe it has been only bout 4 months since she died. I really didn't jump online for quite some time - it might have a couple of months, and I was now using Anne's computer. I also found out that when you change your email address a...

Understood - need to pay what it costs. I prepay my credit cards before I leave on trips but always have cash for just such a situation. I've paid over a thousand for a shuttle. Just the way it is. I forget who said it on here - but canoe trips are time and money. Well said.

I did not have to use them, but I was told there were people that would drive you in on old fire roads from Armstrong. One shuttle guy I used in Canada told me that due to economic woe's, you could pretty much walk into any bar asking for a shuttle and you would have 3 offers pronto. I used...

One Luci and 2 Petzl's

Going to get flown back in to where I abandoned the Missinaibi last summer and complete that one. Then, head home and after a brief re-group, driving up to complete the Cree. (Erica's TR hooked me.) In September or so drive out to Newfoundland for a month. (No canoe, just bicycles. Had...

Fantastic reading and great pic's!

No experience paddling one, but I was looking for a dedicated solo some time back and CEW recommended this boat. I am 240lbs and wanted a boat to haul my gear for comfort trips. Based on that I had to go larger so I went Solo Plus, which is out of your desired length. However, I have a...

Brings my trip to Wabakimi back into clear focus. Thanks for putting this together! Very nice prose'. Re. the axe, I have posted this before, but I always taught my Scouts, best way to avoid an axe issue on a Canoe trip is not to bring one. I never do. Glad you made it ok.

For seemingly far too long I have walked the halls of the Wilmot Cancer Center learning about organs that needed to be removed, MRI's that looked just a bit odd, and test results that could have been better. At each turn, Chick was there, providing support as she has done since we were both 20...

For off season I still do my power walks and will ride my fat bike as long as I don't think I will have a heart attack in heavy snow. My biggest problem is getting the back and leg muscles going again in spring, so I start out with 25lbs in a day pack and work muscles up to 40lbs in my canoe...

Random thoughts - We got on in Armstrong for a scheduled 9 am. Train rolled in at about 9:50. 1 hour 10 mins later we were dropped. It' s probably in this thread but the charge for the canoe was $100 - 18' max. Make sure the canoe is booked because they don't carry as many as they used...
