    Lows Lake and Bog River Flow ADKs May 2025

    Great report and pictures. Really enjoyed it. I was headed to Lows early this year for the first time, but got delayed by Doctor demands. I should be OK in a week or so and just as soon as I can I'm headed to Lows. I'm not sure if I'll use my canvas wall tent or my dome tent. Eather way I've...

    Sorry, can't help you with the poling thing. I know we have had lots of rain, water should not be a problem.

    What do you use for a table?

    Great idea. This is another method I have used many times. Light weight and keeps you out of the dirt.

    What is your local day paddle?

    I have tired to paddle around home but it just doesn't seem the same as up in the Adirondacks. I've tired and tired but it really isn't the same, so I just keep my powder dry and try to make it up North once a month April through November. Just a few miles from home

    What do you use for a table?

    I hate eating, cooking and living in the dirt so I always pack a small folding 14 x 18 table to use in the kitchen. It makes living in camp a whole lot easier and a lot more conformable.

    Good all around tandem for flatwater and rivers

    I believe I'd go for the Mad River because of the rough water. Just my two cents.

    So, what old item do you still use?

    I've still got and use my old Germany Solingen camping knife that I've had since college in 1967. I can still remember the day I got it, paid the outlandish price of $ 2.00 for it. Hard to sharpen but when you do it keeps an edge forever.

    Tired of restrictive headnets, try this

    I saw a video with Kevan Callan the Happy Camper that used one. I guess they must work😀. It would be interesting to see, I think a field test and report is in order.

    National Boy Scouts Day

    We had an excellent scout troop. Our Scoutmaster was a local WW2 hero to us young boys, that not only taught us outdoor skills but what it meant to be a family man, good citizen and member of society.

    Weather: Was it colder when you were a kid?

    The old timers are always telling the younger generation how it was so much colder back when they were a kid. Is this true or just a bunch of talk? What do you think? Our weatherman had some interesting information about this this morning. He went back and counted the total number of days...
