My favorite picture is the one with the front of the canoe in the picture. Mike |

That pic of the lake with the Alaskan snow capped mountains was especially nice. Please post more reports and pics of your Alaskan trips. I like to see pics of different areas of the country. |

I went into the Kenai Peninsula Canoe Wilderness for a three day, two nighter. Total miliage was 20+, but with double portaging it was more. I saw 5 parties, three of them were coming out after the holiday weekend. I camped on an island the first nite. That is the first two pics. It was rainy as I went in, set up my tarp first. (Glad I did cause the rain really set in right after I got it set up). At evening time the skies cleared and it was clear for the next two days. It was great paddling weather with cool temps and little wind. My day out required 12 miles of portaging, (double portaging) and only 5 Miles of paddling. 6.5 hours on the way out, but I was tired. 54 Years old catches up with you. This Kenai Peninsula canoe system is not as beautiful as the BWCAW, but the lack of crowds is a plus. A 2 star campsite in the BW would be a 5 star site here. Some random pics are included. |

Sounds like a good trip after the rain quit, Linden! |

quote BlueSkiesWI: "Where's your new canoe at? I need to get a portage yoke attached to my new canoe. I bought the Yoke and have a plan on how to attach it, I just need some parts. It's not easy to configure a removable Yoke for my new canoe. |
