Photo of the day

I agree, it's great to capture such great shots, better yet, to be there and watch it develop is very rewarding. Nice pictures.
 
Some more BWCA pics.

​ The last pic is Larry Ricker and his dog, "Sam The Faithful"
​ The canoe is a stretched Kootenay, originally designed by Bruce Kunz. Sweet canoe to paddle !

Aster Pond, Algonquin Provincial Park, September 2016
Nothing to write home about. I just enjoyed this little pond and its clearly defined "path".

Spring break 1970 from Paul Smiths College. Other students headed to Florida for a week of partying. My buddy Tom and I headed up the Raquette and Cold River in the Adirondacks. It's 1970, we don't need no stinkin' dry suits , or PFD's for that matter, wool and trust in your ability were all that were needed. Hay, I'm still here and still paddle the Raquette at least once every year.

I can't see them either. Seem you were just a bit ahead of me at Paul Smiths, I graduated in 1976. In an odd sort of way it's because of Paul Smiths I became a boatbuilder. One of my professors taught me how to build a cedar strip canoe and I couldn't stop.

Finished building a new door for the 1886 carriage house.

So I took Nokomis out to my favorite paddle stretch, starting behind the shop here, It's a three mile float, that ends where the East and West Forks of the Des Moines river collide.
Just downstream is a 5' dam, that is in the process of being removed.
Took this pic to compare water levels when they are done.

No Title

This is posted else where but wanted to post it here as well. This picture was taken by my good friend Scott Bolser. I think it was around 2007 on the Pine River in Ossippie, NH. It was Jan 1 and it was 70 degrees out. We had a fog riding over our heads from the minute we got on the river which made for some interesting views. Not quite sure how to may it a bigger pic but it enlarges when click on.
