Lauren is such a lucky little girl to have a fantastic dad who takes her on wonderful canoe trips. Keep up the good work dad!

Glassy calm both ways on Sag? You're lucky. I've ridden some roller coasters there.
P.S. I don't do tow boats either.

Nice job.
I've been making plans for my first daddy/daughter trip. Problem is my daughter is only 15 months old so I've got some waiting to do.

Nice Report Dan! I always wondered what the run through Dorothy, Betsy and Charlotte was like - never tried it. Lauren is a lucky little girl & your a great dad!

Kiporboy,
You're writing a fantastic book for your daughter to have as a keepsake and share with her own kids and grandkids!!!! Thank you for letting us pre-view! Looking forward to many more chapters.

That's it....I'm talking the wife into letting me take the daughter up for our first father/daughter trip this summer.
The father/daughter reports that you and Ducks post should be enough to convince her.
What better time to start the talks than tonight...during a snow storm! :)

Thanks for taking us along. Watching your daughter grow up is (and has been) a special treat! What a great way to grow up. Oh ya- good maps, wonderful photos and the videos were pretty nice too.

I loved your report. To be able to go with your daughter like this to such a beautiful place, what memories you are creating!
I also noticed that you have videos within the report and I am having trouble doing that while writing ours. How did you actually get the videos in there?
Thanks!

Thanks for the nice trip report and pictures, Kiporby. I still remember reading the first one. We see her again every year or so and she grows up by leaps and bounds - helping with camp chores, paddling, portaging, fishing.

Excellent report! I always appreciate your writing and the willingness to share the adventures of Lauren and yourself.
She is growing up so fast.
I can't wait until the next one!
Happy paddling.

That hands down is one of the best trip reports. How lucky is she?? !! She was just full of smiles. What a wonderful memory to be made..and many more.
I thoroughly enjoyed the photos and videos.

Thanks for all the nice comments! I think the maps were not working at first, but they should be fixed now. Hopefully you can all see them now.

The videos were imported into YouTube first. Then, I copy the embed link from youtube into the trip report.

Great report. I wish we would have been into paddling adventures when our kids were young. Such a great experience for you daughter and yourself.
Looks like a really nice area and it has just gone down as one of our possible destinations for a trip next year.

I hope that talk went well for you MagicStik. You won't regret it. Some of my more precious moments with my daughter have been on canoe trips.

I hope it is booked! I have a trip on the Man Chain with my daughter and her cousins and uncles planned for this August. Going during the Perseids Meteor Shower. Should be nice.

Yes, she's a great kid and very beautiful. I imagine I need to practice my routine for greeting the gentleman callers when they start coming to the front door in a few years. Lauren will be plenty tough to deal with boys, but Dad needs to make sure.
