It's OK, I don't mind. :)

I'll admit I did not notice.

Judi and I were looking for some paddling adventures for the weekend. Initially we thought about poking around Watsons East Triangle, but the 3 hr. drive and obligations on Sunday made us look a little closer home so we settled on a day trip into Clockmill Pond near Piseco, NY, looping into Rock...

Nice. Gonna share that one.

The trifecta has begun. BF, DF and Skeeters, yippie!!

We were on the Brandreth outlet end.

We needed another quick get away so Forked Lake was the choice. When we arrived at the campsite there was a deer that really didn't want to give his spot up. He came back in the middle of the night to let us know he was still upset we had taken his pasture. Had the far end of the lake pretty...

Light solo boats built in the Adirondacks

What an amazing variety of paddling options we have. Yet all it takes is a canoe and some time, and we can all enjoy it. Thanks for the report.

I thought this might be a fun little trip, so Saturday morning found me back at the Rt. 30 crossing and heading down the Jessup again. Dang that's slippery mud at the put in. Water levels were down from when we were there last, as expected, but I was able to navigate down over all the dams but...

I would rate it as a week or so late but about average in intensity. Of all the bugs, I think mosquitoes are the worst. Unlike black flies they stay out after dark and will go after you when you are inside. Stable and deer flies run a close second only because of the annoyance factor. Having...

I took a mental health day on Wednesday and Judi (who just joined the forum as Spadderdock) and I did the paddle from Rt.30 down the Jessup River and into Indian Lake. I had never done this trip and was looking forward to checking it out since it is part of a circumnavigation trip I have...

Another great trip report! Thanks Conk.

Black Powder Season.

Sad day indeed. I devoured every book of his I could get ahold of in highschool. He could sure could inspire the imagination.

If you decide to go from Lila to LTL you will be going upstream on all of the streams involved. (Except Rock Pond outlet) Not a huge deal, but something to consider.

I have the exact same nesting pot system from the '70s. If I'm solo I have Snow Peak Ti -mini solo combo http://www.snowpeak.com/cookware/backpacking/ti-mini-solo-combo-scs-004t.html. But when there's more than one on the trip, at least some of the old nest of pots goes.

I picked up a Neoair at Campmor this last winter.They have changed the material and it's much nicer, less plastic like. I got one for Judi last year and even though she covets mine, it really is not loud, even though it seems like it would be out of the package.
