I've used them on a campfire, and I've also used them on a Coleman Stove. Teach a kid to drop pine cones down the chimney of a KK and you'll never have to tend the stove again.

As a 'Starter,' I carry Birch Bark and collect fine confer bows. When starting hold the base on its side with the hole down and hold it until the flame catches. Make yourself an air hose out of silicone tubing with a cut-off cleaning brush handle in the fire end for bellowing the fire (Lower...

I took my Gomboy with us on an Allagash run this year. My son broke a 1/3 of it off. I've never broken a Friskar Saw

Just another option. I like a ridged blade, it's one less thing that can go wrong

I drink my coffee slowly and like it hot so I use an insulated cup and on easy trips, I sometimes bring a second cup for the morning's paddle

I tore my finger on a brad nail and took a Band-aid from my camping kit. They were in pretty rough shape so I figured it was about go thru the kit and see what else needed to be replaced. Time to check the First Aid Kits

I was thinking more like this one

I've seen a picture like this somewhere

Nope. They got snakes bigger than the canoes

Teach them young, Good score

I bought a 17' Coleman Ram for my son that I named "Big and Ugly" It's a great boat when the Allagash is low.

I found this on another site and wondered if anyone named their boats. I have not.
