Thank you Robin, I'll keep that in mind. I'll have to take a look at the map. I have a plan and a schedule, but it's on paper, not in my brain just yet. :-) Pringles

Thanks for all the information Yellowcanoe. That sounds great! Pringles

Hi, I'm planning a trip to the NE in July and August. I'm thinking about taking a little folding kayak with me, but am curious about whether I need to register my boat? I have reservations at a campground on Lake Sarnac (Saranac?) and hope to be able to paddle in some little back bay of Lake...

No problem, Brad. :-) Robin, I puttered around for a few minutes and found a copy for $65, but I couldn't copy the URL as the page kept making my iPad close the bowser. (I think it wanted to play Need for Speed rather than look for books. It's like that sometimes...). I went to Google and...

You're welcome... I do my best, for a woman. :-)

Brad, go to Amazon.com and l look up Sigurd Olson. I only looked at the first page of results, but the majority of the results I saw were in the neighborhood of $7-8, some were only a couple of dollars and some were fourteen or fifteen dollars. There were also collectible editions that were...

Congratulations! It's beautiful. I hope you get to see it soon. Oh, and, red canoes are the fastest! :-)

Welcome!

Thank you Beaver! That's beautiful. I want all the stupid, stupid snow to go away.

Welcome StoneAge. Glad to have you here.

I went for the first time. I enjoyed most of the sessions I attended and had a good time looking at all the booths. As I looked at the mass of humanity, I thought about how almost all of us will drive hours and hours and hours to get to a place where there is no one else, but for one weekend...

Thank you Hogan. It was my first Canoeicopia. It was very interesting. Pringles

Hi, A friend and I were talking today, about a program I heard at Canoecopia. That individual talked about his very long trip to York Factory via a collection of rivers and lakes. My friend and I both got excited about the prospect of paddling from ??? To York Factory. We're not interested in...

I've had one for a few years. The shirt has lasted through two Arctic trips, one BWCA trip and an Everglades trip and shows little wear. I had only a few bug bites during each trip, most likely from when taking the shirt off or putting it on, or visiting the latrine area. I call it my sanity...

Ok, it's not the same, but the layout is similar. It would let you face a fire and has mosquito netting. The MSR Fast Stash is listed on at least one site for $254, and others at $300. http://cascadedesigns.com/msr/tents/essential-series/fast-stash/product

I excel at the half roll! I am splendid at the half roll! I practice the full roll at the pool on Sunday, but I'm not so good at that. I'd like to have a dry suit, but you're right, I don't think I can afford one, especially for the amount I'd use it. I'm too chicken to go out on the big...

Well... I'm getting there. I remember doing 5 hour paddles in the kayak, but if I did that now, I'd have to do a wet exit to get out. :-) What I really want is more summer. More NORTHERN summer. It's awesome here at that time.

I'm hoping to be able to do a little kayaking there, and at Grand Island, this summer. They're both beautiful places.

That's really nice! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks thekat. I do live in a great place for outdoor activities. My favorite activity is backpacking, and then next would be kayaking. Unfortunately, canoeing ends up being a little further down the list. I enjoy kayaking in the St. Mary river. I have a couple of folding kayaks, and have...
