Dreaming of the 2015 start.... A shot from my Caddy Lake, Manitoba trip

I think of my canoeing trips as part of my lifestyle, one of many interests that make it all fun!

I don't work about frame flex on mine as the tires just lift prior to the frame flexing. On the longer 4dr pickups it can be a concern on rough terrain but I have yet to hear about a canoe being damaged due to this. Some very nice Toyotas here!

I am so in on this one! Pic was the third day out with my new Nissan Xterra Pro 4x, now with 33 MT Baha Claw's Edit to add a 4x4 link- http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/132219-New-2014-Xterra-Owner-Icedragonmx-s-trip-reports

My favorite is now an Alaskan Scout in 44mag as far as Canoe guns go... And something more for the classical look to get it back to the "Art"

lines 1 and 8 is where the most trouble is. It cost a lot to loose the last few pounds! Best is to find the middle ground or just take what you can handle. I do have some light stuff (27# canoe) but just end up taking more stuff regardless. Still doing the 110# worth of gear in one port. The...

Very nice! I really like the shots at 1.48 and again at 2.28 on part 2. Nice way to capture the moment as you paddle by! "Not a light weight camper" total understatement but you do live in style while tripping, points for you! I am going to have a short trip with everything with, just to see...

Awesome! Thanks

Wow! Great picture with the deer looking right at you!

MPI must provide the coverage for the vehicle as they don't allow for private insurance, as the sole insurance provider they need to provide complete coverage. The canoe would be covered under the home insurance plan so two deductibles in total. Best plan is not to roll too many times! I do have...

I have been told that a pure sine wave inverter is the way to go if you are trying to charge/run electronics etc --- http://gpelectric.com/products/pure-sine-wave-inverters and http://waveinverterreviews.com/ I like the idea of a remote power supply that can be charged with a 12v system. I will...

You have room for two! Lol Thanks for posting the mods done as I am just starting to put my Xterra SUV together as a trip vehicle. A very basic set up for me but its a start for right now. I hope you don't mind if I steal a few ideas? Do you have a power converter or extra battery in your truck...

A few pounds and more strength is always a great thing! I know I am spoiled with the composite thwarts, handles and end caps on mine and the integrated rails are great. Not a single bit of wood/metal to worry about. The future materials may be better yet, but every pound saved is worth some...

That's some good news! I should have sent more so you can treat yourself to a beer while on the shoreline! Thanks so much staying with it.

All right, how much lighter would a Keewaydin 15 pack boat be in the Quad Woven Innegra/Carbon and the full carbon tec package in the trim pictured? And how much would they charge? And how quick can they make it! Lol :eek::p

No Title I was more worried about the canoe than the truck when pushing through the "trail". As always my stuff is there to be used :) Another from that evening...

Me in the pic from the old days....

I think, given the chance that you can find a fair bit of support from the members here. Regardless if it should it be financial or personal support needed. :) Hope we can share in another year of trip reports and stories from the shoreline!

​From this weekend with the new truck heading in to a fun spot....
