    ADK camp situation?

    Looking to do our annual family week canoe trip. We are planning around 3rd week of August. Thinking about going to Lila, Round lake (near LTL) or possibly trying Follensby Clear pond. Never been in that area yet. I've been reading campsites are hard to find this year. Read where people had to...

    NorthStar Canoes

    I figured they are good canoes... I actually looked at this canoe a year or two ago. The dealer still has it and has a nice discount on it. I'm sure it's awesome for tripping and that's what it will be used for. Mainly curious on how it feels and handles empty. We will paddle to a spot and...

    ISO: lightweight solo and tandem

    My solo I have now I set up to sit, kneel or sit on the bottom. I know what your saying. I have a bad knee and like being able to switch up. I also have a bunch of kayaks and do not mind sitting flat with my legs out. I did a week trip out of my P&H Capella and really enjoyed it. Like I said...

    Yes I've been wanting to go to the solo Rendezvous but keep forgetting about it until it's over... I sat in the Northwind ADK solo and mentioned there is not much room for gear.. I'm not a minimalist so maybe I should reconsider and trade off some weight for more room and performance.

    ISO: lightweight solo and tandem

    Both canoes are for mostly flatwater canoe camping. The tandem for my wife and I, and the solo for just me. Our trips are usually at least 6 days. the only place around me (1&1/2 hours away) that sells nice boats is Blue Mountain Outfitters in Marysville PA. We were there last weekend looking...
