I believe I'd go for the Mad River because of the rough water. Just my two cents.

I've still got and use my old Germany Solingen camping knife that I've had since college in 1967. I can still remember the day I got it, paid the outlandish price of $ 2.00 for it. Hard to sharpen but when you do it keeps an edge forever.

Wow, you got some great info there Tsuga8. Noelcanoedad and Gamma1214 has about all you need to know to get started. There was stuff in there even I didn't know. Great job.

I'd go with the Clarion. Allegheny seems too busy for me. Just my two cents.

One of my favorites that can apply to many things in life. "Love many, trust few, always paddle your own canoe"

I saw a video with Kevan Callan the Happy Camper that used one. I guess they must work😀. It would be interesting to see, I think a field test and report is in order.

I keep hoping for Spring, but still late Winter conditions here in North central Penna. Really need to get on the water again.

Thanks for the update. I'll be reading up on these and hopefully I'll be able to make one.

Really enjoyed your video, thanks for posting.

We had an excellent scout troop. Our Scoutmaster was a local WW2 hero to us young boys, that not only taught us outdoor skills but what it meant to be a family man, good citizen and member of society.

2024 was a good year for me. I was able to check off items on my trip list, making 8 multi-day trips to the Adirondacks. Now that I have a canvas wall tent and stove I hope to get an early start this Spring.

Good Luck on your trip, it sounds like a trip I have been planning and wanting to do all my life. I will be watching for your trip reports.

Nice trip report. Thanks for sharing.

The Lows Lower Dam repair project has been taking longer than expected, has anyone heard when it might reopen. Weather forecasters predict a warmer than usual Fall. Would be nice to squeeze in a quick trip.

What a great story, I'll be looking forward to the rest of the story. Thanks for posting.

I also carried my canoe on my cap with simple foam blocks. I attached web straps loops sticking out from under the cap for tie downs. Simple, low cost and never any problems.

I enjoyed your report, thanks for taking the time to write.

This reminds me of my college days at LMU in Harrogate Tenn. I had been spring turkey hunting and after hunting back at the dorm while taking a shower I found 7 ticks on me., 5 were impeded. I used Right Guard spray deodorant on them. One good spray and they backed right off. Back then the...

I wanted to give a little update on my bite situation. Today I had a follow up appointment with my family doctor. He's an old country doctor that probably has seen hundreds of bites. After a very thorough examination He assured me it was not a tick bite. He believes it is a spider bite...
