Thanks all for the warm welcome. Been traveling on business for a few days but was able to see your replies.
Barry, I make it your direction at least a few times each year. We have a family camp between Huntingdon and State College. Always like to float the various branches of the Juniata for smallmouth fishing.
Conk my friend I'll have to convey the story of the oak invasion around a campfire! Suffice to say that it was a fine test of cardiovascular fitness at 2:00 in the morning.
Turtle, I know a number of folks from your area or at least nearby, Rochester, Buffalo and Chautauqua.
I paddle primarily solo canoes, currently have a Swift Shearwater, Bell Magic and MR Guide. Have done a number of Boundary Water trips though have missed the last few years due to insidious things like work and unnatural disasters. Looking forward to sharing stories and perhaps even meeting some new friends along with reacquainting with old friends.
