    Tangle Lakes - Delta River - Alaska Canoe Route - Day 3

    Day 3 finds us again floating casually down the Delta, it widens out, slows down, more flatwater than quickwater, as if it were impounded. In actuality it is. Eureka Creek, a glacial river, enters on river left, and the outwash delta pushes the Delta far up against the bluff on river right...

    Purcell Trench Grills

    Came across these the other day, bought one, was so impressed I added another for a friend on his birthday. These things are sweet. A small shop makes them in the Selkirk Mountains in Northeastern Washington State, stainless, superb welds, great designs, very light but durable, perfectly...

    Good Day, I've been paddling some thing or another since I was 8 years old and won the canoe race in an aluminum Grumman at YMCA Camp Douglass in Michigan. Got my first boat in the late 1970's, a 14' glass canoe from Bart Hauthaway, raced it on the Kenduskeag, wrong boat for racing but also...
