Getting back into paddling after a long hiatus. Found this site, and liked the conversations. Currently I own a Mad River Independence Kevlar, an Eclipse (from when the girls were young) and a Guide Boat that my wife found for me on Craig's list. Mostly paddling small lakes and ponds, occasionally throw into the Hudson. I am located in the mid-Hudson valley of NY.

Welcome from Pinnacle, North Carolina. We grew up outside Buffalo and had a farm and construction business outside Auburn until we "retired" ti our NC home in 2017.

Welcome, mil, hope you find this site helpful and pleasant.
I’m from a tad north of you in the town of colonie.
I suppose you paddle in the Catskills and the ADK’s?
Any favorite spots?
Any places on your wish list?

Mjp, welcome to site membership! Feel free to ask any questions and to post messages, photos and videos in our many forums. Please read Welcome to CanoeTripping and Site Rules! Also, please consider adding your location to your profile, which will cause it to show under your avatar, as this is in many ways a geographic sport. We look forward to your participation in our canoe community.

We have several members in or near the Mid-Hudson region. I spent my most active canoeing years in the 1980's when I lived in Woodstock, NY, my wife was raised in Columbia County, and we both still visit the area frequently.
 
Welcome! Grew up in Fingerlakes, undergraduate at Potsdam, and live in Thousand Islands now. I always felt upstate was north of the Thruway.
 
Welcome from the Cooperstown area. If you're ever interested in paddling sections of the Susquehanna River, let me know. Where do you hail from in the Hudson Valley?

That's all for now. Take care and until our paths should cross...be well.
