I took another look and have some thoughts and questions.
On my first view I missed the second pack in his canoe, so I stand corrected, he might have carried that tent in his second pack along with all his gear and didn't "stage" a trip like I kind of hinted at.
Lifting that canoe with a Duluth pack on his back was pretty neat, all I can say is enjoy it while you can.
I wonder if he did all the camera work by himself, alot of work and doubling back, but the final product was excellent imo.
Has anyone ever seen a coffee maker like that, where the coffee just poured itself out into his cup? And I guess that was a firebox he was using for his fire, anyone ever use one? I have never seen one out there and was wondering about it's weight and what real advantage it has over a fire pit. I understand the "forest fire" angle, not wanting to start a fire in the duff, but humping that thing around could get tiresome. Is it a traditional thing, fire boxes?
I really enjoyed that, Bill Mason lives on in some folks.
