I'm an idiot, I completely forgot about mandatory carrying the falls. Nice catch.

I would love something like this for cooler weather. I wonder if we could band together and get a limited run. They are usually at Canoecopia as well. I bet they would be a lot pricier than most will pay, however. https://www.nrs.com/customer-service/email-us

I was going to include them in my list, but they haven't put up much content lately. After the bear incident, I think they were pretty well done for a bit.

BB, it's silnylon. I have another tent that is made of the material and already equipped with a stove jack. Silnylon melts with high heat and embers, no flaming. That's a good tip from Song of the Paddle. Below are a couple images, should anyone find this thread in the future and wonder what we...

I'm hoping! Maybe in white.... 😉

Dafaq?!

Found the old BWCA.com thread. Linking here to maybe save someone else the time later. Dan built a prototype modified-pyramid shelter and was not pleased with the results. https://bwca.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=forum.thread&threadId=53359&forumID=15&confID=1

It certainly looks.. lively... in that video. Jeremy is not a large man; that probably precludes a purchase from me. Which is good, because just when I thought the market offerings were settled, along comes a new spate of boats to consider. I really want to see the DF15 in the flesh.

Thank you!

Has any one modified their CCS Lean shelter to accept a silicone stove jack? I think this would be an awesome combo for hunting season paddling.

Every time I watch that video, I think about buying a TuffStuff boat from them.

All of mine seem to really like 50-75% of the manufacturer's max recommended numbers. If using "industry capacity" (usually 6" WL), more like 40-65%.

That helps, but no, it doesn't eliminate ALL of it. Find My App and Find My Device still allow recovery (and discovery) of powered-down devices using the virtual network of nearby devices to "tattle" on your devices location. You can do all kinds of stuff to an "off" device remotely. Change...

I turn on my Zoleo when on trips or hunting away from cell service. That's been good enough so far. At this point, she knows better than to ask, lol. She does use Life360 with our teens. It was part of the deal when we got them phones. We don't monitor it closely or set geofence alerts or any of...

How tall are the three of you? How many packs are you bringing? Are you rabid ultralighters? Unless you are all under 5'9", less than 160lbs, and are bringing one medium pack each, with one food barrel, you are not going to be "comfy" in anything less than 19' long. Roughing out an outline on...

Trying to balance a dynamic load (you) with a static load (gear) will be met with varying levels of success. The longer the trip, the lower the odds. Kicking a pack to the right when you scoot left is one thing, but preemptively loading things in a an effort to balance will, in my experience...

Everytime I go, I can't help but pick one up off the rack. The weights always blow my mind.

If you are interested in moving water, the Allegash Wilderness Waterway is a lovely stretch of river that has a good number of campsites. No carries other than the dam.
