Looking good, Alan. I'm glad you are back at it.

Thanks for posting that. They are pretty neat. I haven't seen one yet this year (I got sandblasted off the beach when I went to look) but here's one from last year: SnowyOwl-6.jpg by Hansen.Dougie, on Flickr Not the best shot but I was happy to capture it at all. That's the Moriches Inlet...

I use an 2.6" fixed blade ESEE Izula lashed using a small Malice Clip on my NRS Chinook PFD. I haven't needed it yet but I'm glad it's there. IzulaPFD by Hansen.Dougie, on Flickr http://eseeknives.com/izula.htm http://www.tacticaltailor.com/maliceclip.aspx...

Looks great so far! Thanks for the detailed narration. I'll forward this to a friend who is in the middle of putting a knife together.

That is so cool! I love that shot.

Whatever you decide on, don't buy it without holding it in person. I've bought a number of knives online only to open the box, check it out, cut a few things with it and then end up selling it on Ebay (loosing money) a few months later. Reading the dimensions just doesn't work for me. I need...

Thankfully I haven't needed it but I bring a pre-made fire with me when cold water paddling. If I dump I can just get into my rucksack and pull out a pre-made bundle to light and warm up. I think I got that from a Cliff Jacobsen book.

Whew! I'm tried and I just sat here and watched videos. Unbelievable adventure. He was truly driven to get it done. I have to admit to having some canoe envy. That Sea Wind is sexy.

That looks like a lot of fun. Hard to believe it's almost January! I'm glad you saw a lot of wildlife to keep it interesting. Thanks for the photos.

That's neat. Nice job!

My Sweetheart used a pair on our trip last September. She was nursing a bad ankle along with a painful hip and they enabled her to climb Hitchen's/Lowes Ridge. I've never used them but seeing so many folks with them, they'd have to be helpful for sure. One thing I didn't like was all the...

Thank you for posting the detailed "how-to". That helps a lot.

My Sweetheart gifted me some Atlas Snowshoes with trekking poles! I've never snowshoed before and I'm looking forward to giving it a go. Yesterday was in the 50*s F here and today is in the 40*Fs. It may be a while. Her daughter baked me chocolate chips cookies and they are fantastic! Good...

That looks really great. I like the pronounced bow rise. Get healthy - the canoe isn't going anywhere.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Nope, you're not wrong. Everyone deserves to have a good experience when in a public place. I have many reasons why I would like to trip with my dog. I have less reasons why I wouldn't but they are stronger issues and deal breakers. This dog won't trip with me. Perhaps if I ever have...

That looks great Alan. I like the pattern you've laid the strips out in. I'm looking forward to seeing her smooth and wetted out.

A well mannered dog is never a problem although it can be a problem to find a well mannered dog. Any dog taken out in public needs a strong foundation of obedience coupled with a good temperament. I am pro dog but I know they can be nothing but trouble regardless of breed.

Welcome

Thanks for the detailed description and photos of your set up. It really helps me understand what's going on.
