    7th trip report- ELA August long Weekend plus a Day

    Do you have a tripping bucket list?

    Back in 2010 I showed up with the guys at my son and daughter-in-law's in Ste Lazarre, Quebec, after a great trip to Temagami. I looked like a bum with a grey beard and I'm sure I smelled like one too. Isabelle (D-I-L) said wow Pop you look cool with a beard, what she meant was wow you look...

    Lobster Lake to Allagash Gateway Campground Questions

    I'm beginning to see a pattern here. I think we will watch the weather very closely and think safety. Thank you for all the input, it's great to have a forum like this. Any campsite suggestions? I want the guys to have a good time. Last year I sort of blew it - I need to redeem myself.

    Lobster Lake to Allagash Gateway Campground Questions

    Kim, Thanks for the info - I have been saying the 11th and confusing everyone for a month. My excuse is I was looking at Sept., but who wants to hurry summer, after last winter. I would like to take you up on the offer of the solo. The Morningstar is asymmetrical and I have been wary of...

    Lobster Lake to Allagash Gateway Campground Questions

There will be 5 of us and three canoes (Souris River Prospector 17', Old Town Penobscot 16' and a Bell Morning Star 15'6") so one guys has to solo...

    Neat places close to home

    On Labor Day weekend last year one of my sons and my grandson and I camped on Donnell pond. The site was nice - according to Yellowcanoe's map it is named "Under the Mountain". It was secluded, while there was activity at the other campsite, since it was Labor Day. Yesterday I finally got out...

    pots and pans and cookery stuff

    I have a home store, so I use pots and pans that have been returned by my customers. For the last couple years I have been using Scan Pan sauce pans and frying pans. If it's just two of us camping I take a 8" fry pan and a 2 qt sauce pan. No as light as most of you use, but they work great...

    La Verendrye Trip May/June 2013

    Robin, We fortunately had strapped most our fishing gear in, so only lost John's gear. The only day we fished was the evening of our last day out. It was to windy and rough otherwise. John used my rod and gear. Dan and he fished around our island campsite with not much luck. We were really...

    Your next canoe trip?

    I think Yellowcanoe has the right idea- Florida. I think spending some time on the beach, dreaming about canoeing and maybe not shaving is what I'd do. For summer though, I hope to go to Quetico and Temagami on two separate trips. I'd like to get a lighter tent and lighter more compact...
