Paddling Ottawa to NYC https://www.theweathernetwork.com/en/video/C78ePjzS?playlist=cmZCH3Jb

Unconfirmed at this time but it's quite likely that restrictions on border crossing related to Covd-19 may be eliminated as soon as the end of this month. Still needs the nod from the Prime Minister. If this goes ahead it would mean the end of vaccination requirements, random testing and...

I was just reading my 2019 post about Labrador, apparently I promised some sort of trip report but never followed through. I got burned out doing my 2018 George River report at least that's my excuse for never finishing it (one day I will fill in the last two weeks). In any event I'm heading for...

Not my boat Listed on eBay, $700, really nice condition https://www.ebay.com/itm/175341004234 Set up with twin saddles and airbags.

I'm heading North tomorrow to the Nettogami River, I'll be joined by my regular partner and two refugees from the lower 48. Put-In on Saturday morning. The trip starts on Upper Kesagami Lake north east of Cochrane, 4 or 5 days downstream we will cross Kesagami Lake, portage over to the...

https://www.ebay.com/itm/165180009658? Not mine! Looks to be in paddle ready condition, listed at $800, no idea if that is a good price these days.

Lake St Joseph / Cat River / Otoskwin River (Pickle Lake Loop(ish)?) Part by plan and part by Covid I have not done much paddling this year. No early Spring day trips and only an 11 day trip on the Riviere Noire (Ottawa Valley) in early June with my usual partner Sam82. I have been thinking...

This Spring I'll be working on a new (to me) Mohawk XL14. It is currently set up as a tandem with two pedestals, I will be converting it to a solo with a single seat. The Eds Canoe contour seat looks like my best option, comfort being the main goal here. Two questions I wondering if the 40"...

I heading east tomorrow to continue my exploration of Labrador. This is a follow up to my 2018 trip starting from the Smallwood Reservoir to the George River and onward north to Ungava Bay. This time I will be starting out just east of Labrador City on Ashuanipi Lake, travelling south to...

Looks to be in fantastic condition and a great price ($500) https://www.ebay.com/itm/352708540238 NOT mine obviously, I would like it to be but I'm not going to GA anytime soon :(

I've been using G/flex for patches on my Royalex boats. A few years ago I bought the "repair kit" which includes tubes of 655 so that is what I have used. I've been using "regular" epoxy for s-glass skids plates (generally just adding another layer of glass when necessary). Now that I have some...

Finally getting around to working on the report from my 51 day solo adventure in Labrador & Quebec last Summer. It's still a work in progress, so far the Introduction and Part One are done. After struggling to convert some really old HTML templates to a (slightly) more mobile friendly format I...

I know this is a long shot but there must be somebody headed to Wollaston Lake in 2018. I'm contemplating a trip from Wollaston Lake in northern Saskatchewan to Baker Lake Nunavut for my Summer solo trip, the trip itself seems pretty simple, put in on Wollaston in late June or early July and...

Got 90 minutes to kill? Got a comfortable chair or couch? Got a stimulant of one form or another? Take a virtual paddle on the Riviere Harricana on the way to James Bay. Audio required for proper enjoyment! More info and pictures from the trip: http://recped.com/harricana/

I'm looking to acquire a Mohawk XL14. I would consider an XL13 or XL15. Well worn is ok, would like to avoid significant structural issues. Prefer a boat located in Canada but I might be able to arrange something for the US if it's close to Niagara Falls, Detroit or the US East Coast.
