Nice job Ed!

That's a five star report if I've ever seen one! |

Dawn,
Yeah!!!! but who would I get to carry it around the portages for me??
The camera is pretty new, and ate two fully charged batteries on 132 pix. With my old Olympus I got about 125 per battery. I am a bit annoyed by the dam thing. BUT it is waterproof to 5 meters for 30 minutes (allegedly)  |

Ed,
Wish I could have made it up there again! Did the dishes get washed this trip? 
NO problem with the dishes, but I am somewhat amazed that you mention it. In 2005 you never even acknowledged that there was such a thing as a dirty dish....

Ha! Choose a float with no portages! 
What kind of camera do you have?
I was told my new camera (Canon S3 IS) would eat batteries like crazy, draining 'em after a few minutes, but I haven't found that to be the case, especially with the rechargables I just got. I do wish it was waterproof though. I like the idea of the solar camera bag for remote locations, but like you, I wouldn't want to haul it around! I think Real Goods also sells just the flexible solar panels, which would be much lighter. They roll up fairly small too.

I thought you were going to NZ???
Alaska, NZ, Patagonia....I want to do ALL of them (and more)! But to celebrate my graduation, I do want to travel out of the country, so Alaska might have to wait a bit longer.

 It counts for Berms, who actually rowed more than a half hour....
Notice we didn't even ASK Berms, Steve or Pappy to do dishes. Just the slugs who weren't primary rowers....

Olympus 725. Frank got a 770, which is good to ten meters, but costs about $50 more. I figure if I lose the camera in 10 meters of water, there is NO way I'm getting it back without Scuba gear.

Thanks once again for another great read Ed. It's too bad Louis &
Clark didn't have you along with them and that digital camera of yours.

Sonny, the black lab, ran ahead to make sure there were no gophers or jackrabbits in the way. If you don't give a dog a specific job, he'll improvise one for himself and it will invariably be fun. There's a lesson there.

Pike?? 17 Years, 3 Months ago
|
|
|
Ed what did you think of the fight those pike put up? I've taken quite a few out at Lake Davis, up to eleven pounds, and in fighting and running ability none of them even came close to the Davis rainbows. You'd crank them to the top and they'd just drop back down to the bottom and sit. But I have heard they are supposed to be very good eating.
Once again thanks for the great report.
