Bannock	05/29/2011 10:48PM   Nice. Thanks.
KevinL	05/24/2011 08:39PM   Great pictures! Thanks
cowdoc	05/24/2011 08:52PM   Nice ken! New ride looks sweet!
butthead	05/24/2011 07:04PM   quote whitecedar: "Butthead: Tell us about your new ride, fast, able, comfortable....we are all ears. Very nice photos by the way! WC" All of the above! Paddled thru boat wakes on Moose and New found,and into whitecaps over 20 inches on Birch did 15+ miles to camp 1st day without trouble, only had to adjust ballast to the back to turn down wind (and it took a bit!). Very happy with it as a long distance tripper (load at > 240 lbs. total)! Fished with flygear, no problem but no real hits. Took no water over the sides, and kept up with PJ's Magic handily. I'm very happy with the choice! Thanks! butthead
wawasee	05/25/2011 12:24PM   Nice pictures looks like you had good weather.
butthead	05/25/2011 01:58PM   About 3 ft long, 2 ft wide, 1 1/2 ft high. butthead
Ho Ho	05/25/2011 02:14PM   Great pictures. So did you pick the Advantage over, say, the Prism for better speed? What breed is your dog (Baxter?). He always looks happy and well-behaved in the canoe. Just thinking about a canine outdoors companion . . .
Amok	06/01/2011 08:09PM   Nice trip report! Glad you had fun.
jb in the wild	05/28/2011 11:31PM   Ken love the pic's you the man. Your new ride is sweet. I might be lookin for a solo myself soon. Thanks for sharing your trip with us. JB

Wallidave	06/04/2011 10:06AM   Beautiful sharp pictures...what type of camera?
AndySG	06/11/2011 11:55AM   Great stuff Ken. You certainly have a good eye for photos. I am glad you like the new ride. Wenonah makes some fine canoes.

TuscaroraBorealis	05/24/2011 02:56PM   Excellent photos! The eagles nest was neat & seeing the ribbon rock is always cool beans. Looks like you had an awesome trip? Thanks for sharing. Sure was nice of float stanley to save you those 2 beers. :) Had to of tasted mighty good?
Zulu	05/24/2011 03:01PM   WowI Those are incredible photos Butthead. I like the one of your new canoe and the still waters. How did you like the new canoe for tripping? The overlook photo must be on the Vera to Ensign portage. Beautiful is right. The weather must have been great. Glad you had a wonderful trip. Float Stanley is at that age were he just wants to hang out where the beer is.
ripple	05/24/2011 03:02PM   COOL slide show!! Love the eagle picture!! We had the same week in the BWCA- such a great window of weather!
whitecedar	05/24/2011 03:33PM   Butthead: Tell us about your new ride, fast, able, comfortable....we are all ears. Very nice photos by the way! WC
bumabu	06/03/2011 06:02AM   Great photos Ken!!! Me and Float Stan were happy to be on our way, but bummed we couldn't join you for cocktails and b.s. Friday night, he actually complained about it for the first couple days of our trip. We are gonna have to get together and paddle sometime this summer.
muddy	06/03/2011 10:22AM   Great photos!
TomT	06/04/2011 10:52PM   Nice pics! And your boat looks fast.
butthead	05/27/2011 09:40AM   quote PINETREE: "Was that you coming out at about 0800 on Moose lake along the rock ledge on May 20th in a solo canoe(with one other solo} with the Bwca.com logo on it? Brother and I were heading up to Prairie Portage than." Very likely PINETREE, did the canoes look like this, Blackgold Magic and a skincoat kevlar Advantage? butthead
PINETREE	05/27/2011 10:06AM   Yes,and you were the ones with the big smiles. We talked to you for a minute by the rock cliff on Moose north of the twin islands.Nice canoes.
SunCatcher	05/27/2011 05:33AM   Butthead, Very nice photo's you always amaze me with the quality you get. Love the pictures of the boats together...they look like friends side by side also. haaha. Read above and sounds like you enjoyed the heck out of the ride and the trip. Take care and thanks for sharing. SunCatcher
nojobro	05/25/2011 01:07PM   Ahhhhhh..... heaven. Question...what size is the ribbon rock? Can you please compare it to something that I might know?
Frenchy	05/25/2011 02:47PM   Thanks for the trip report. I also like that portage.
butthead	05/25/2011 02:24PM   Didn't like paddling the Prism, wanted a distance tripper similar to the Magic the Advantage is just what I wanted! Baxter is PJ's companion, mixed breed, and is a very good pooch in the canoe, and out for that matter! butthead
paddlefamily	05/29/2011 03:46PM   Great photos. I really like the portage photos...lots of variety between them. Enjoyed seeing ribbon rock as well. Looks like a pretty area. Thanks for sharing.
Trix	06/03/2011 10:45PM   Awesome photography Ken! Looks like you stayed at some nice campsites. Thanks for sharing.
PINETREE	05/26/2011 10:10PM   Was that you coming out at about 0800 on Moose lake along the rock ledge on May 20th in a solo canoe(with one other solo} with the Bwca.com logo on it? Brother and I were heading up to Prairie Portage than.
