Tent is a lean one. Lines on tent are rolled up and held in place with elastic hair bands. The tent is then stuffed in the stuff sack.

Did you find those swans in your new canoe?

I will lend my opinion for both Glenn and Alan. To this end, I paddle with a dog and a good amount of gear. I day paddle local lakes and Wisconsin River main channel and backwaters and trip in the boreal-namely BWCA or Quetico, as well as Woodland Caribou. I paddle tandems rigged solo...

Your pics look great. I especially liked the pictures of the poling. I am starting to learn this, but when traveling with a dog the difficulty level increases. I used to love to paddle the flooded timber in the spring on the Wisconsin River … we do not get flooded anymore … perpetual low...

Like Marten, I do the same … also add the meat to knor rice dishes, good stuff.

Yikes!

😉👍

that is what I was hoping for - not sure that was allowed if I was not camping there the entirety of my trip. Thanks Bill.

Looking for info - especially assistance getting permits from Dawson Trail Ranger Station. Should I pick up permit in Atikokan, stay in town and drive to put in - keep truck at camp ground? Pick up at Ranger station in Dawson Trail and keep truck ... not sure what to do and what is best...

The twenty-ninth Day, by Alex Messenger. A true account of Alex ( 17 years old ) and his 5 buddies on a 600 mile canoe trip through the Tundra. On the 29th day of the trip Alex gets attacked by a Grizzly. He has to survive with the help of his buddies long enough to reach a remote village...

Congrats on getting a great canoe! The Polaris is reasonably fast and does well in wind. It will hold a good amount of gear and makes an excel tripper. You are going to love this canoe! Bob.

Jake and I sure enjoyed our Breakfast meeting with Bill and John. We have meet a lot of great people at the Copia show and Sundays breakfast was no exception. We hope to do something similar next year. Thanks for setting this up Bill.

I will text you Bill Bob

NorthStar Polaris. Pretty spendy in black lite carbon Kevlar but an excellent 17 foot tripper can be paddled tandem or solo. weighs under 45 pound I believe, tougher than woodpecker lips! Pretty fast, maneuverable-all around good tripper. https://www.northstarcanoes.com/canoe/polaris/ Bob

I went to Florida last year with Jake only. We were going to all go together, but life got in the way and it was only Jake and I. She was a bit hesitant then as well as this trip, not knowing what to expect and being Leary of Alligators and the current of the springs etc. I was confident she...

We had a great time paddling on this trip, my first ever with my Wife. The best part is, on the way home she was talking about going again next year! 👍😉🛶

Alan, it is funny, I was driving just South of Monroe on the last leg home when I had a blue bird keep pace with truck for a bit, then fly off. I remember thinking it is too early for them. We just got home on a 55 degree sunny day and read your post. Early March does indeed have robins and...

Now we are enduring the long slog back to Wisconsin …. Just in time to get ready for Canoecopia! Bob.

Hey Glen. That stretch of water is a little off shoot on Rainbow Springs. It is very easy to miss, a bit of a tunnel in the bush that goes back a mile or so … to a fence that indicates it is a restricted area. It is very scenic, best part of the trip that day. The last pics are from our...
