That’s some great news, New York State and these organizations involved have done a great service to those who love the beauty and wilderness of the Lows Lake area. Part of me says remove the structures and roads and let it go back to wilderness like the rest of the area, but I’m biased. Some...

Welcome neighbor.

Nice pictures and write up, Thanks

Contact Mike McCrea, he’s probably got something like that already made up.

What a beautiful location, hope it’s not to stressful.

I like the earlier ones. It actually took me a few seconds to see the two different canoeist’s in the first post, that’s a beautiful thing. That 1963 Canadian Silver Dollar is very nice. Thank You for posting these.

I carry a cold handle frying pan, slipped into a protective cover and always the last thing to go on top of my Duluth Pack before I close the top flap. The “Lilbug” stick stove goes in its protective cover and lays flat in my pack. I carry a small stainless steel pot with a lid and wire...

That’s a nice little canoe, I have a replica built from the lines of an original Chestnut Fox but would really prefer an original. Oh well, wrong time, wrong coast.

That’s a fair price, actually very fair what with those nice stickers and the sizes of the paddles.

I didn’t even read the post above before I liked it.

Beautiful canoe Brightraven. I have always hear nice comments about the quality of Tom MacKenzie’s craftsmanship. My favorite campsite is Virgin Timber Landing on Lows Lake in NY’s Adirondacks. I have spent many nights camped there in early spring or the last week of October with my wall...

But, I seldom if ever attempt any moving water anymore Years ago, solo west of Temagami I was floating down stream when I took my eyes off the water and got flipped right out of the canoe by a rock just under the...

Thanks for the heads up, you’re right, he did an excellent job on that video, very entertaining and informative about the area. Very respectful to the First Nations people too. Yea, he is a pretty good paddler also. Your write up and pics are very good also. Thanks

Perfect time to start accumulating hot tent gear imo, far better now then later in paddling season when things start to cool down and used gear becomes scarce or new items get back ordered. I use a downsized canvas wall tent with an interior frame and a small no brand wood stove that I cut down...

If the fly is wet I would stuff the tent in a waterproof bag and lay the fly on top of it, then place both above the waterproof liner and under the flap of my Duluth Pack. If I did get the opportunity I would stop on a breezy point or beach and lay the fly out on some bushes. I can’t remember...
