Awesome trip report. You had me chuckling the whole time. Note to others, you may not want to be eating or drinking while reading this report. I snorted coffee up my nasal passages and simultaneously spit some back out onto the counter in a gag reflex as I busted a gut laughing.


Thanks for making my day.

"Paddling a canoe is a skill I wasn't born to. No one is. But after thousands of miles, it'd grown to be a simple joy."


Well said. Thank you for the write up.
