06/21/2021 07:01PM Nice report. Fun read. I don't love the cold but I struggle with the darkness. Also, have lots of aches as a side sleeper. Makes me tentative to go in October. Especially alone. Too much time in a tent I fear |

06/13/2021 07:41AM Great photos and details. It's not in me to brave such cold but my hats off to ya, nonetheless. About the final photo......a fierce Night's Watchman. |

11/14/2020 12:44AM Thanks for the report, very enjoyable to read. I get anxious at the end of a trip worrying about wind and not being able to get out safely. I was on Stuart a couple falls ago and the high winds came through and snow afterwards. The next day I headed out and it was the nicest day, and I was just leaving, but also thinking about not capsizing, etc. It was really cool and looking back enjoyable, but scary at the time. My toes also get cold, and I am thinking it is a circulation issue. trying to find ways to stay warm in the cold! Thanks for bringing back the memories. May you have many more enjoyable paddles! |

10/21/2020 06:50PM This was a fun report to read because I can identify with several aspects of your experience. I too watched the weather forecast that week getting colder and wetter by the minute. I ended up exiting EP32 the day you entered, and like you experienced some frigid fingers that did not excel at opening the bear vault. Unlike you, I remembered my coffee. Unfortunately, I forgot my spork....  Glad you had a safe and enjoyable trip. |

10/19/2020 07:55PM Great report. Although I can't believe you forgot the coffee. I probably would of just turned around. Just kidding. |

10/19/2020 09:50AM Fun to read your report. A cold trip like that wouldn't be my choice, but it sounds like you did well. I smiled when I read that you forgot to pack the coffee--with a very cold forecast! Since we don't do caffeine, we don't need it for that, but imagining a morning in canoe country without my hot coffee (decaf) just isn't possible for me! Thanks for your report. |

10/18/2020 08:12PM I enjoyed your trip report, Noodle. Sounds like an enjoyable trip. Thanks for sharing. I know what you mean about being in a Winter Wonderland when it's snowing. I absolutely love paddling when the snow is falling. |

10/18/2020 07:58PM Thanks for the report. I haven't been in the number lakes yet. My toes always get cold too. Caution with the cold weather and cold water is using your noodle. |
