On this trip we're canoe camping on a tiny rock island in the middle of a river. Mistakes were made and lessons were learned but this father son adventure we will never forget.
Me and my son (Law) find what we think would be the perfect place for an overnight camp in the middle of the river. My main worry was water levels rising overnight and our gear getting wet, but that turned out to be the least of our worries.
After the debacle on the rock we decide the best decision was to pack up and head for the take out. Trying to dry wet gear fire side is a very tedious process that takes time and an abundance of fire wood. We had neither with the evening approaching and overnight temps dipping into the 50s we had to hustle.
I've paddled this river many times and am very familiar with it and have completed multiple twilight paddles down other rivers, with a full moon of course. On our way out the moon didn't make it's acquaintance until about midnight which made for a very difficult and slow paddle.
A lot was learned on this trip and we had fun, just had to change plans a little.
Thank you guys so much for supporting us, we're going to need it on this one ;) hope you enjoy this one and maybe learn something from my mistakes!
