Fortunately my new haunt of Atikaki Provincial Park in Manitoba is so laden with Walleye and my paddlers love fishing that it becomes a question of what side dish tonight. Copes Roasted Corn takes a while to rehydrate but is worth the wait. The flavored instant potato packets keep things...

I have to have a tarp. I need to have a view on nasty days if possible. On a Summer trip I had bushwhacked to a remote Walleye lake and found a camp spot to use when I would fly in with friends that fall. At the prep trip meeting I made sure we had the needed tarps. That fall we drew a nasty...

I add rehydrated ground venison to the various Hamburger Helpers. Simple and a great meal in the bush.

I use the Corel Video Studio for my editing of videos. It has way more than I need in an editor as I try to keep things real without all the transitions and effects that are at your finger tips now. Once I got using it a few times I have found it easy to piece together a video with all the...

I am using a Panasonic Lumix zs200 now. I had a zs100 but the gear for the lens retract started sticking. It had been dropped numerous times and saw a lot of use. When it failed after 5 years I expected to go with some new magic camera but found the zs was still the best value and just what I...

Paddle with a carbon double but bring along a cheap plastic brute for boney spots but mostly as a walking stick for rough portages.

I have stuck with the small cameras that have zoom capability. Many use the Go Pros but they would never work for the videos I put together. My camera still fits in my pocket but in video use it is almost always on a tripod which I feel is very important to make the best viewer experience.

Just some very disturbing g new words in your vocabulary! SITTING and DOUBLE in the same thread. OK, maybe you never really wrote DOUBLE but it was implied.

HOTEL TYPE TRIP. !!

As I have dug into what they know about long term issues with some tick bites the stories get too hard to follow. So many ailments may be from untested aspects of what a tick can do to your body.

My go-to camp bread uses the Martha White pizza crust mix. Just add water. I like it because it comes in a plastic pouch that is the perfect size for my 10 inch cast aluminum pan. Covered with a tight lid and low heat for 15 minutes and then flip. When its blueberry season I sweeten with brown...

My worst was heading out into the Quetico in a tandem with a friend. We were last getting going and the three solos headed across instead of taking the long route along the shore. Mid-May and the ice was hanging off the vehicles from the all night drive up. About 28F with the wind kicking up...

At 32.58 of the salvage video the boat is lashed to his truck but I have no idea who made it.

In trying to figure out what canoe he had I noted that the bow rarely made contact with the water. Fishing poles were less than half the length of the canoe. Yoke looked like it could carry a very heavy canoe.

Anyone know what canoe that was. He said 10 foot but was it. Seems to be a tandem.
