great report Ken :) We found Float Stanley to be a fantastic tripping partner on our girls Quetico trip :) Does it count as a solo? Absolutely! :-D

Good report. Sounded like a good trip. The video is a cool idea. I can't watch them right now but will check it out later.

great report, especially the video...i'd like to do that sometime.

Nice report. I think FS enjoyed the quiet. His previous trip was a bit tiring for him. To me the biscuits looked good....but every day....I could see how food boredom would set in.


You have a great voice. It's like your signature. I was watching your video and from another room one of the B's said "Mom is that Butthead? I recognize his voice." I guess all it took was one Wing Night and they will never forget you. : )

I always talked to him, he just couldn't hear me. Maybe he just pretended to not hear me. :)

From the land of sky blue waters!


Nice report. I like your tarp set up.


I'm leaning toward a double solo.


When you hear Float Stanley talking back to you it's time to leave!

nice trip, thanks for the report. i think it is still a solo and it is for sure ok to talk to FS, i talk to Chazz all the time when i go camping and he never says a friggin thing back...just has this stupid grin on his face. he is very frustrating.

... And yes I do/did talk to Float Stanley. Of course I also talk to trees, rocks, myself, and so forth!"
so that begs a question-- did he talk back to you?
;-)

We're lucky he didn't do his Frank Zappa impersonation!

Great report Ken. Loved the Videos also.
SunCatcher 10/01/2010 06:55AM
Ken,
Great Report. I think since Float Stanley is so Introverted and never says much it was a true solo. :)
Thanks for sharing.

quote Bannock: "Nice. Thanks. I soloed that area earlier this year in May.



I'm glad that Little Shell was good to you. Twice I have tried that site and BOTH times it was littered with fish remains.
"



It was quite clean Ken, just pine cuttings and signs of heavy use.

The solo question........did you find yourself talking to Float Stanley?"



Thanks! And yes I do/did talk to Float Stanley. Of course I also talk to trees, rocks, myself, and so forth!

Nicely Done! And great pictures.

The solo question........did you find yourself talking to Float Stanley?

Really enjoyed your trip report - especially the video. Thanks for sharing!

I see Float Stanley is into science fiction reading, can't beat Heinlein.
PJ 09/27/2010 08:32PM
Nice report.
lars54 09/27/2010 08:17PM
nice report and thanks for the videos
Trix 09/27/2010 05:16PM
Ken, nice report, complete with videos! I think it still qualifies as a solo. It's not like float stanley helped you portage or paddle or anything else for that manner! Kind of nice to have someone to talk to besides yourself tho! We all need that on a solo!
Amok 09/27/2010 01:15PM
"makin' wood" hahaha! Glad you had fun. It was nice to meet you at Wingnight.
bellolake 09/27/2010 11:48AM
Since your partner didn't talk at all during the trip I think it still qualifies as a solo.
