	great post campgirl! Its tradition for our group to bring ice cold Hienies in; froze,wrapped in newpaper with a frozen steak, upon our first night in we drink cold beer and grill steaks;packing out the crushed cans of course But last June coming out of Conmee L we got hailed on like crazy. Thank God we'er portaging into Williams L at the time, it hailed so hard it cover the ground like snow. By the time we finished the portage it quit; the other guys had to go back to pick up a couple of packs, mean while my dad & I collected ice hail for some cold drinks for when they got back. WOW! If God gives you ice better use it. //windsailor

	Wow, that brings back some unpleasant memories. I used to own a beer bar in Lewiston, Maine and every once in a while we'd get a load of beer that had some frozen cases and it turned bitter when it thawed. How do you freeze beer without it getting bitter?

	Don't hate us 'cause we like to partake in a lot of libations. We carry in 3 ponies of beer, 8 bottles of baileys (for coffee and the like and we put them in nalgene bottles - no glass), 5 bottles of blue 100 (they're little and pack a punch - mix with hot chocolate), 2 bottles kettle one vodka (again in nalgene and mix with either kool-aid, ice tea, or lemonade), 1 bottle VSOP (don't mix or add a little lakewater), and 1 bottle of Jim Beam (in nalgene - mix with water). I know these aren't very thoughtful but they work for us. --- Pax

	For 14days I generally take along 1 small flask of baileys , 1 large flask of Stolli and 1 large flask of JW Black. . So not really casting stones. Just in awe. SW

	Sorry Pax - I still respect you but I have to comment 3 ponies of beer - Not worth the effort and it taste much better once out of the park. 8 bottles of baileys - Just how many women do you bring with you? 5 bottles of blue 100 - What? Are we still in High School? 2 bottles kettle one vodka - If you have to have clear liquor at least you picked good stuff. 1 bottle VSOP - - Brandy? Not exactly the stuff "Born of Hoary Nights." 1 bottle of Jim Beam - With there so many more better American Bourbon's out there - why Beam? (Do they still use rice?) On quantity I give you a neutral rating - It seems excessive but then, what is excessive anyway? On quality - - sorry pal. No offence I hope buddy.

Since you obviously have a "legion" I hope you split up. Finally, I hope you are "thoughtful" enough to respect the values of other canoeists and keep your "party" noise levels so you don't disturb the rest of the wilderness.

	Uhhhh, starwatcher, I think that's just Pax's personal beverage supplies. I think the rest of his group has to pack their own in....
