"I have paddled the large nomad for a few years now, and I absolutely agree -- a larger volume version of that design would be perfect. I'm 220lbs and have taken it on a few week-ish long trips in Quebec, and especially then would have loved…"

Christian Woodard posted a blog postEarning turns on the first Raquette release of the summer
If there’s one classic Adam Herzog line, this might be it -- “Don’t be a fucking pussy.”It’s applicable to almost every situation in which Adam finds himself, and the Raquette put-in is no exception.“But we can drive shuttle and be back in ten minutes,” Alan said. Alan is built like a malnourished sparrow, and was wearing brand new skate shoes instead of river booties.“Don’t be a fucking pussy. It’s faster to hike.”…See More

Christian Woodard posted a blog postRomaine River, for the last time, again
Labrador Air Safari: It might not be legal to strap a boat to the pontoon and have James sit on a milkcrate in the cargo area, but it saved us 500 dollars. Tripp, James and I are back from Quebec! Well, we’ve been back for a few weeks now, but between the Labor Day releases in New York and sneaking food from the Middlebury Dining Hall, it’s been hard to pull together a blog post. I went to the Romaine last year, full of idealism about the "Last Descent." But, we went again this year, only to…See More
