Seven I think. Three currently, which is all I have space for. Solo canoe, tandem canoe, and a recreational kayak.

I store my boats outside under Red Leaf designs covers on sawhorses about 8' apart. The boats are 16'. I'm out in the back yard fetching wood daily, so I see them regularly and just brush them off if I think too much snow is accumulating.

Interesting tie-downs in those first two pics. Not sure I'd trust'em.

We had a flurry a few days back, but not enough to make me note the date.

There is an entire festival built around this in NC. It was last weekend. From their facebook page: There are 13 body segments in a Woolly Worm and 13 weeks in the winter season. Each body segment of the winning Woolly Worm corresponds to that week’s weather. Weeks 1-4 - Below Average and...

That is a Brendan Leonard flow chart. He does them often. https://semi-rad.com/

Reading this discussion I now regret not going. Just wasn't in the cards.

Tempting. Ohana is three docks down from my family camp.

Welcome from the other side of the river.

I'm sorry. You'll just have to go and do the trip again. :)

National Geographic's Pete McBride has a few short films about the Colorado River. Chasing Water is a source-to-sea effort if I remember right, then there's two about the Grand Canyon (Martin's Boat and Into the Canyon), and one, maybe the most compelling, about the river actually making it to...

I don't see many cairns except the ones above tree line in the Whites where they are very helpful while trying to find your way down in iffy weather. They are literally life savers. They are large and unkempt, and obviously trail cairns. Were I to see small "ego cairns" (I just made that up)...

I thought I was in default, but it turns out I'm in Mocha so I just changed my response in the poll. I also might start messing around with this now and again. I'd forgotten changing color themes was an option.

I went one year to Keewaydin on Temagami and at 12 was in the youngest section. It was a lot to ask at that age, but I regret not returning the following year(s). At least it planted the canoe bug in me, though it took a while to gestate. And I still think a canoe should be a certain shade of...

Astral E Ronny for me. Comfy even on hot days, no friction when paddling, great pockets. Plus it's florescent orange. Would certainly buy again.

I posted about those earlier in the thread. Definitely interesting to read back-to-back. https://www.canoetripping.net/threads/what-are-you-reading.106/post-38749

I had a Spirit II in royalex. You will be very happy with that boat I think. Definitely a step up from the Disco.

Late to this party, but I've got an Adirondack in "Kevlar". Serial number starts with MW. Weighs 55 lbs.

I rehydrate in a covered insulated pot or mug. Not sure I'd buy foil bags just for that. Single use and all. The ziploc bags I split the meals into get reused. At least a few times.

This is how I've done it. Easier to make an even split that way.
