Canoe Trips           < back   Quetico   next >

Mitch portages a canoe at Quetico Park in Ontario, Canada, in September 2003

We rented lightweight (42 pounds) Kevlar canoes from Piragis (our outfitter) to ease the portaging. We double-walked each portage: once with canoes and group gear and a second time with personal gear. Our longest portage was 0.6 miles (whew!).
