    Aurora Borealis

    We are having a very active Aurora season this year. I'm at 68* north, above the arctic in Norway and you see the lights every day.

    Whitewater Canoeing Videos In an Old Town Camper

    I use my Old Town Charles River royalex in much the same way he is doing. It certainly works and considering the available canoes in my country it has to be consider it a great canoe.
