Took the Raven on its first camping trip to Lake James in North Carolina. Not as prestigious as Boundary Waters or the ADK, but a nice
short get away.

Loaded at the Launch ready to go.


The Raven handled the load very well. Even into a stiff breeze it tracked well and glided along.


Linville gorge. The Blue Ridge Parkway and The Appalachian Trail are up there.

Rain and wind in the evenings kept me at camp. I would do my exploring early in the morning when it was the calmest.
It was a good test for this canoe. I am very impressed with it.
