No surprise there, I guess NH looks at hikers as the new Cash Cow for the state...

curiosity got the best of me so I took a look at the ones we have. Turns out they are approx 18' made by a company called Danuu..kayak and canoe covers. They have a dot com address in case they make other sizes. I do remember they were a bit pricy at the time, but well made.

We also use a cart much like Stan's. It comes in mighty handy esp if the tide is out and it's a long walk through the sand etc. (we also use it here in the yard if need be). Many many times when launching we look for drift wood to use as "rollers" and more often than not launch beside a...

Looks like you had a nice time. I was pleased to see a Bald Eagle today while paddling the bay. Very Nice..on a good day,1st you hear these huge wing beats...then search above for the source. Used to look for them there in Dec nice to see one this time of year, so I felt particularly fortunate.

Most any time now. Drones are the ultimate "big brother is watching" ...for better or worse.

We keep a house up there in the town known for it's hang gliding. We hiked the Parc it's entirety a few years back. Pretty sure there should be a bunch of info here on VFTT from previous threads..but not completely sure. just a reminder French is the language so brushing up a little is...

Yes, I have day dreamed of paddling into Hudson Bay but I haven't been that far north. I know there is a canadian canoe web site, think I'll check it out a bit later to see if there is any more info. Certainly does sound like he had a tough go of it. The google translate is a bit rough, but too...

I wonder if this is the same story only the version I see is that he was a canoeist. I wonder which version is correct or partially correct. http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/10/31/too-weak-to-talk-but-alive-camper-found-in-quebec-forest-three-months-after-vanishing-on-canoe-trip/

Here is a link to the rescue of someone who was paddling a bit more north in Quebec than where I go. http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/10/31/too-weak-to-talk-but-alive-camper-found-in-quebec-forest-three-months-after-vanishing-on-canoe-trip/ Seems things took a turn for the worse...

I usually guess- ta-mate about 40 minutes, but haven't refined it much more than that... a 1/2 hr might be more realistic. Yes, very unfortunately a woman about my age did drown there earlier this year right near there. I even got "called on the carpet" on a different web site for offering...

I see we paddle some of the same waters here locally. I am often paddling Great Bay. Nice pictures as well, I recognize some of the places. In case you are looking for ideas people often put in at Exeter then paddle down to Chapman's landing. You have the choice of round trip or a one way trip...

Great picture. I remember the 1st time I ever saw one as a child..I completely freaked and cried and cried and cried. We were getting an ice cream cone somewhere and I was shorter than the window counter where we placed our order. Looking up I see the bottom of the counter and there above was...

We paddle a Boreal Designs... Beluga..at 21 ft 76 pounds (kevlar). I know their plastic tandem weighed in at 100 lbs, so that is why we did not go for plastic. I love paddling tandem, you can easily cover a lot of miles at good speed plus they are excellent for wildlife observations, lunch...

Greetings from the Gaspe....crossing at Rimouski (ferry) tomorrow to Forestville then the Saguenay for 5 days. We are pretty psyched...thought we would brush up a bit with your trip report :-) ...happy paddling...

Great report !! Glad you were able to check out the Saguenay... Belugas and et al. We have been through the area several times but not kayaking so we are looking forward to our up coming trip (5 days down the Saguenay) Our friend who will join us went to school up in Chicoutimi and we will...

The portages were great, much improved on the Richardson side as they also made a ramp for launching. So much nicer than trying to launch amongst the jumbled boulders that I remembered from a few years back. Glad that SPOT messenger still works so well... it is one of the 1st generations when...

"Miles from nowhere, guess I'll take my time..." 5 nights/6 days paddling with Philippe, friend and fellow adventurer from Sherbrooke, Que Every spring this past few years we head to the northern lakes for practice & fun We thought what the heck it was an excellent spring "pre-season"...

I'm sure you will have a great time. (let me know if you have any questions) Heading down the Saguenay July 22-27. It will be quite a deluxe trip as we are going with an outfitter known for local delicious food. Hoping it is something that will also teach us a lot about the fjord and...

Glad you mentioned that, it got me to thinking there was a well known "hermit of Nh" from days gone by so I looked it up here is a link about the fellow (I didn't know there was a book). I think he also is mentioned in various other histories as well. Here a link about him...

Of the two "hermits" One version is the armed and dangerous type the other not at all. One aggressive one passive I would say...I wouldn't want to drift into a weapons thing here but the difference is pretty obvious to me. I suppose Pine Tree will go easy on the fellow from Maine. In an odd...
