Very nice Koda. I like all the details of your gear and food. Very nice pics as well. How did you manage the distorted one?

Thanks, alpine. I'm glad you found it useful.

quote SunCatcher: "Nice Report Dave,
Enjoy your photos a lot.
How do you like the Olympus Camera.
I borrowed my sons Fuji waterproof and it does take nice photos,
but my other son uses an Olympus at work in Florida on the water and says they are better?
Thanks for the glimpse into your trip.

Hi, Paul,
Thanks. I like the Olympus well enough for a no-brainer, rough-and-tumble, point-and-shoot. The optics are good, which is my main criterion beyond weatherproofness. It lives in the pocket of my PFD so is always available on the water, but it's so slow I sometimes miss shots.
Good to see you this weekend!
Dave

Koda,


Just re-read your trip report - it was great! DH and I are headed up to the numbered lakes next week. Since we have never paddled the numbered lakes, your trip report was very helpful. Great photos. Thanks.

After reading many kind remarks about your trip reports I decided to find one. They were all correct, well written, interesting, educational, funny at times, and wonderful photography.

Thanks, guys. Only problem is that you were looking at my September trip. The link was supposed to take you to my May trip. Try this link instead.

Should be helpful for next year.

Thanks, rr. I hope to paddle the Bois Brule some time when the water's a little higher.


Thanks, strom. Good for you to have big tripping plans - and a lot of years ahead of you. I hope to make two trips a year until I can't any more (being only 61, that could be a lot of trips). I'd think about going more often, except I have this aversion to biting insects, crowds of people, and hot weather. So I'm pretty much relegated to the "shoulder" seasons. Plus I'd have to take more pictures and write more trip reports, and I think that would get tedious after a while.

Having read many of your reports, I'll just say I enjoyed this one, too, as usual.


I also looked at your Brois Brule report. I've done that section a few times in the past. Your pictures brought back good memories.

Excellent trip report Koda. I've only recently discovered my love for this wilderness, and have now set about obtaining all the knowledge and gear necessary to enjoy these waters for years to come. I come to this website daily and peruse all of the separate threads and links. This community has informed me a great deal already, and reading all of your trip reports with attached photos just gets me fired up for next summer. Last summer was my inaugural trip, and next summer I intend to go back twice, and once I'm done with school and not quite so cash strapped I hope to make it there three times a year (perk of being a teacher ;)).

Do you mean this one?. I used the Palette Knife option (under Filters) in Photoshop. Here's another one I used that tool on.

Yeah, that's it. Who needs to learn how to paint when you can work this kind of magic. All kidding aside I really like the effect. I think having an 8X10 digital frame for these would be cool.
