    Physical Conditioning for Canoe Tripping

    Wow! Seems you really got a wack of Covid. I say, lucky you did have the vaccines and boosters as without you may have been in a terrible situation. Hope you regain your health back to where it was previous to the infection. At age 83 I still manage to get out for a week or so trip every year...

    Back to northern Quebec

    Nice ride Robin. Very capable rig for far away places. Knowing you, it will eventually have a very nice canoe carrying setup indeed. G.

    Trucker's hitch variations.

    Have used a variation of this knot for many years now and don't find it particularly easy to undo, nor easy long term on the life of the rope when used often. There are many variations proposed on the internet via video or illustrated instructions, but I prefer to hear from the people here as to...

    How do you edit and upload canoe videos?

    Corel Video Studio here. I really don't know how to exploit every feature yet and probably only do one video per year, so it's like learning all over again every time I use it. It takes patience to make good canoe tripping videos. I liked Robin's videos the first time I saw one, and that sort of...

    La Verendrye- fulfilling a boyhood dream

    Glad you fulfilled that dream and wish you many more. Nice to see a younger generation replacing us LV oldies. Latest news from the SEPAQ people running canoe camping in LV is that they are going to build another headquarters at the North entrance to the park (actually it's a Reserve Faunique)...

    Swift Cruisers Anyone

    Interesting review WB. Thanks for posting. I have always wondered if I could get a Rapidfire across the border without paying too much duty. Hardly ever seen one up here and absolutely nothing on the used market. G.

    Why Are You Here?

    I met Robin over on MYCCR many a moon ago and liked the man and his values. I followed him here, and he got me hooked on this site. Love the attitude here. Lots of respect for the other person and their opinions + lots of knowledge being spread around. Even after my final trip is done, I'll be...

    Yukon River Quest 2022

    Yep, the start of this race is quite a spectacle. Never participated, but had a chance to witness the start in 2008 while on a trip up there. Good luck to all 2022 participants. G.

    Off to The Bay....James Bay

    Looks like trip finished today as satellite tracking shows arrival at Moose Factory. Camp sites for the last 2 days should be interesting as they were in real boggy country. Now for the trip report. G.

    Another Chestnut(?)

    Life is a succession of projects. This one needs a lot of TLC. Can't wait to see pictures of it once restored. I'm sure you will enjoy those cold winter nights, by the wood stove, bringing her back to a better condition. Enjoy the process. G.
