Thanks!

Where, please, sir.

Don't know if you can get a Hellman Canoe where you are but, if you can, I recommend the Hellman Solitude. Stable, hauls a load and I can keep up with my friends in their tandems (although that might be a comment on the speed of the tandem paddlers). https://hellmancanoes.com/the-solitude/

Very well said. I continue to be impressed with your knowledge of plants! Thanks again.

I always enjoy listening to loons and I found these videos today so I thought I'd share them. Hope they brighten your winter day. https://photos.app.goo.gl/GZnnPeHMpP14Gju1A

Yes, some look familiar but I agree with Alan Gage that the new narrative is fun and different. Thanks again.

One year my two oldest sons decided it would be a good idea to participate in the Yukon River Quest. Since Dad has a canoe, paddles, PFDs and the means to haul all this stuff, I became the support person. To shorten the story, we were sitting, enjoying a beverage, in our campsite just outside of...

Once again, great pictures and commentary. My knowledge of plant identification is very basic and gets "relearned" most years (therefore very little progress is made) so I really appreciated your plant pictures and information. Thanks again and keep posting.

Wonderful pictures and stories! Thanks so much for posting.

Thanks for the information, RiverRider. I like to keep up on options just in case someone has found the "perfect" pair of pants or the "perfect" pair of boots.

2009 Toyota Sienna AWD. 4 people, 2 canoes, gear for a month (or more). Works great.

I have a 2 car garage and have developed a method to hang the canoes over the cars. I built a frame over the doors and added a trapeze for the other end of the canoes. To put a canoe away, I have to move the car outside. I put the garage door opener from the car into my pocket. I close the...

Yes, I have camped on that island and the barrel was there. The island used to have a lot of garbage. We cleaned what we could and let Ric at CRCO (Churchill River Canoe Outfitters - for those of you not familiar with the area) know about the mess and he said he would get someone to go in and...

Cardboard 2 liter (quart) milk container?

Nice video. Brings back memories of that trip and also of days when things did not go exactly as planned. Thanks for posting.

I agree with Mason's assessment, too. This bear was testing and assessing the two paddlers. I'd still like to know how they got the rest of their gear.

Really interesting and thought provoking video. Not knowing much about bear behaviour, I wasn't sure if it was just curious as some have suggested or, as others have suggested, aggressive and testing potential prey. I lean toward the aggressive and testing potential prey side. I, too, was...

Ditto on your comments about the tiny vestibule. One of my criteria for selecting a tent has been that it must have a vestibule large enough for me to get into and then close before opening the tent. I've found that in bad weather this is a necessity to allow me to remove my wet gear outside...

Thanks so much for getting CanoeTripping up and running again.

First, any trip report is a good trip report! Although I really enjoy video reports, they usually lack the detail that I prefer. Having said that, not all "text with pictures" trip reports have a lot of detail. Is that wishy-washy enough?
