We’ve managed to add some extra paddling days this time, thanks to my brother’s recent acceptance of that state known as “early retirement” and the indulgence of our wives, who get to watch the trip progress via the GPS co-ordinates sent from our Spot Connect! While the trip won’t be quite as long as the six weeks we spent paddling from just east of Pickle Lake to James Bay on the Otoskwin/Attawapiskat River systems (click on the blue text for the Google map) way back in 1982, it will be five or six days longer than any of our recent ones. We paddled them to Dawson City, some 500 miles downriver. The Grummans were Hudson Bay Company rentals out of Whitehorse. On the Yukon river in the summer of 1978 – my first great canoe trip! From the left that would be Graeme, Jim, me, Barb, Roy, and Obie.
