Thanks Doc, sounds like the boys had fun. Moose picture is a classic.

I really enjoyed the Trip Report Cowdoc. Thanks. The photos are really great! I like the one of the rain shower across the lake. The moose photo reminded me to make an appointment for my annual exam!

Nice report and great pictures, and just in time as the new paddling season is about to start. So was the new guy hooked and begging to come along this year too?

Jake loved it...not sure when I'll get him back up there. Good kid...pitched in with chores, paddled hard, strong as an ox, he portaged a good sized pack and my Wilderness 18 with one trip. I'd take him again in a heartbeat.

Great report and right through the same lakes we are hitting this year! Love all the pics. We are also starting off at Tuscarora Outfitters.


Thanks for the report.

Great report doc! And nice pics. We were headed that way this Spring. Unfortunately fate had other ideas and it will have to wait for another time. I'll come back to your report then. Thanks for sharing.

Discretion is the better part of valor when it comes to rock jumping. I enjoyed your report. I'll bet it's really neat to connect with your daughter when you get up there.

Great trip. You picked the right time for berry picking. Fresh wild berries go well with just about everything on a camping trip. Are you preg-checking that moose?

Loved your report, especially your pictures. They are incredible! What kind of camera did you use?

Camera is just a Sony Cyber-Shot....usually set on "automatic". I'm not a camera buff so I keep it simple. The BW can make anybody look good with photos sometimes.

Great pics and they look like great kids. All that young, male muscle must be nice on portages!

I will paddle eternal, Kevlar and carbon.
