Canoeing Plans for 2026?

[tomo]

Have a mid may bwca primitive management area permit, 3-5 day solo, a three day brotherly bonding trip to the bwca in July, and a four day spousal bwca trip in Aug. I’d like also to get on the flambeau or brule at some point.

Going to get flown back in to where I abandoned the Missinaibi last summer and complete that one. Then, head home and after a brief re-group, driving up to complete the Cree. (Erica's TR hooked me.) In September or so drive out to Newfoundland for a month. (No canoe, just bicycles. Had planned on take the same road recped mentioned in his most recent TR. I have three mounted spares for this trip0.) If all is good after that, plan on spending a month out in the SW, biking around those states where you can stand in one spot and be in four states at once - Utah, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico. Will be looking for some intel on this one later on. Everything based on completion by 1/1/27. Then, hopefully, I start again.

The Cree is a good river for hammock camping because there aren't many spots to put a tent down flat. If you are energetic, hauling everything up to the top of an esker (when there is one) provides a lovely, park-like setting.
