I must reluctantly admit that your trip report was a good read.

Sadly,

Molly, Hope the reluctance doesn't come from anything related to the University of Michigan. The name does not refer to the school in Ann Arbor. Actually I'm a Spartan. I just love my home state! Thanks for the compliment btw.

Michigan is a beautiful state. I shopped properties there, but bought in Maine. Being an OSU alum, I signed the required contract to talk trash about Michigan, but I appreciate Michigan too much to put much feeling into it.

Ha ha nice. I become a huge OSU fan once a year, whenever they play U of M!

Very good and interesting report with top quality pictures. I have seen some of this area you covered and remember things by reading this report. Thanks.

Entertaining read and great photos. 1984 is a bit heavy to read on a solo trip...

Hi, MichiganMan/fellow Spartan. :-)

I had looked at the photos of your trip several days ago, but this afternoon I took the time to read your very well-written report. It is an area where we have been, so that always helps, but the way you told your story made me feel like I was along on the trip. (except for the fishing parts, as we dont' fish.)

Thanks for sharing. It sounds like a wonderful adventure!

Thanks for taking the time to write your report. I really enjoyed reading it & hope to get to that area some day. Amazing how the rain can affect a trip. It seems you handled it very well! Well played.

How did you like to Royalex? That's what I'm renting too. Have paddled Kevlar many times but thought I'd try something different. I know it's heavier but I'm going easy on portages.

shoot me an email!
