That made me glad too.
And thank you for the obituary. It captures so much of what made Dan and his gear so special.

Rest in peace Dan. You'll be missed. I've got some gear to remember you by. And some advice on paddling. Condolences to the family! Pete

Good article. It really captures his spirit and attitude on how he approached his work and play. I'm glad to see his son will carry on the tradition. We made need a special wingnight to memorialize him in the near future.

For some reason, reading this article made me think about the way Dan use to post on this site. On so very many issues so many of us tend to fall into a model of “A” is great and “B” stinks. Dan would say something like “A” has a tensile strength of W, a tongue tear strength of X, a hydrostatic head measure of Y, and an ignition/flashpoint of Z….then go on to describe B.
I will miss the scientific, engineering, fact-based approach to his post here so much.

Absolutely agree.
Found him to be friendly and enthusiastic at Canoecopia, he will do a great job carrying on.
