Those fire roasted spuds you see in the right side of fire pit were outstanding with my breakfast eggs the two mornings I was there.
Only thing better would of been some of those honey hole waldo fillets to go along with it. Sad

I'm looking forward to your trip report/ pictures and POD's


Well, I DID send in some POD submissions.

As far as the trip report, I'll have to think about it.

One, this year we didn't go very far into the park, for various reasons. It's kind of embarrassing.

And two, every time I set out to write a trip report, it morphs into a long and meandering piece of narrative literature, rather than a compilation of helpful knowledge. I had big plans after the 2010 trip, for example, and just the trip across Bayley Bay turned into a thousand words quoting Rick Bass and others.

Hahahaha.

I appreciate ANY effort in regards to trip reports/PODS/pictures.

Besides, what may seem like a meandering report to you might just be very entertaining to others and hold some info newbies or even seasoned paddlers either don't know or just never thought about the way others do. Huh

I learn new things here all the time. Don't be so hard on yourself, if everyone were their own worse critic this site would be a wasteland. Wink Grin Grin

No worries - we love useless knowledge here too.  That's why we read ST's trip reports.   Grin

You shouldn't be so negative. We complement you and this is your response? We have high standards around here. Kiss

Fellas fellas ... is this all in good fun, or is there an edge to this banter?

As an outsider looking in, I can't tell.

(Makes me feel like a guy being sent up to do hard time, and walking in the door and wondering which "gang" to align myself with ...)

But back to the topic at hand (trip reports), I'm curious as to what readers/fellow travelers like to see.

The aforementioned "useful knowledge," which I wrote to mean things like fishing ... weather ... campsite availability and "health" ... landing conditions?

Or musings on wildlife ... wilderness ... group cohesion ... camp chores etc.?

That was my original point. My writing tends toward the latter. Is that boring to others?
