Trip Introduction:
As usual, we have to look for a fourth paddler. We asked Jake to go. He is a friend of both my sons. He was very excited to get the chance to go. Both the boys and I had a great time showing him canoe country. Jake is an avid outdoorsman and got his money's worth out of every minute.
