X ped 9 downmat is what I think the right name. I find it comfortable and like the compact bundle when rolled easy to store inside any pack. Using their inflation bag takes the ugly out of set up.

Sorry for the delay, I was off the grid all month.

In a real pinch I smear a little chain saw bar oil on the sticks and let it soak in for a few minutes. Last resort is a little squirt of the gas mix. Doesn't everyone pack such supplies?

Thanks for the update on conditions and a heads up about the snowdown last fall. I well remember the WCPP snowdown of 2012 and spending three weeks with two chainsaws clearing through endless kms of severely blocked portages. Hopefully the damage will not be that bad this time. WCPP has pretty...

With all the fires in the upper mid-west and Canada some may be interested in exploring some new unburned canoe routes. This is a report on some of my travels in the area.

My favorite places are in the boreal forested area of Ontario and Manitoba. I have spent over a year of camping nights in Woodland Caribou Provincial Park in NW Ontario but with the recent fires those special places are not to my liking. Fortunately the last few years I have been exploring...

I put a you tube video in a hunting post and it worked perfectly.

WOW!! Thanks for all you are doing.

Being able to use someone's GPS FILE of seldom used portages is a big plus for me. It also gets rid of all the false starts where that old map shows portages long since relocated to better routes.

I am also for the full migration. Thanks for all

Very sad to see the whole park going up like this. No rain in sight either and these fires are even burning into each other. The map link is the best to really track the fire. Select layers in the upper right drop-down list...

When we fly with two canoes on an Otter the pilot does have a preference of which side the longer one goes on. The last time we got dropped off the pilot and helper then strapped a Lund Boat to the struts for the trip back. I think the pilot had asked the outpost cabin owner for permission to...

I have used 240 to 290 in different canoes but know now that I like the Camano 260 the best. Others have used it and then bought one. My main transport is a Wenonah Prism but have used it in Wenonah Encounter tripping too. Bow and stern in tandems of different makes and worked well.for me. I am...

In Manitoba's Atikaki Park we found our travel plans being dictated by advancing forest fires and wind direction. With good forecasts we knew where not to head. AND our pilot was only a text away!

I have spent a lot of time in Woodland Caribou and agree with Alan Gage on those big lakes of the upper Bloodvein. Actually the Bloodvein from Artery and west is getting so much use that Manitoba has taken notice. So much paddling in those areas without spending it all on the Gammon or Bloodvein...

DDB (Dirty Double Blade). OH NO, cabin fever season is here, someone is trying to make trouble!
