Title: Re: Knowledge at our fingertips Post by goblu79 on Jun 7th, 2019 at 9:50pm
I've made five Quetico trips and readying for my sixth. A digital camera is the only electronic device I take into the park. We use maps and a compass to navigate.
Like many here, I look forward to being "unplugged" and in nature. I'm often the butt of camp jokes because I select a site that is removed from my fellow campers. I've told them all, "I didn't drive 1000 miles and paddle 25 more to pitch my tent right next to yours!!" ;D I have never and probably will never take a fish finder in. I have so far resisted all attempts to get me to take a Sat phone or a tracking device. I understand those who elect to take these kinds of things. I do a good bit of research though before we go. My groups are usually 6-8 in number, and I feel the burden to have camp sites prepared and alternates selected if they are taken. If the groups were smaller, I'd freewheel it. |
