The weather has turned decidedly and the water is getting cold, so there are not likely to be many more paddle trips this fall. Time to get bindings on the new skis and get ready for some snow.
Doug worked with our friends at St. Regis Canoe Outfitters to lead a two night trip for seven guys from the metropolitan area. We had all varieties of Adirondack weather. Cold and snow with a low of 23 F on Friday, beautiful sun and a slight head wind on Saturday, then rain overnight, finishing with a “soft” (read wet), calm morning for our paddle out. Bill, Bob, Jim, Elliot, Alex, Wayne and Paul were a fun group to spend the weekend with. See you guys on the next adventure.

Today I worked with Paul Smith's College students and staff from the Recreation, Adventure Travel, and Ecotourism Program (R.A.T.E.) as they prepare for their twenty-four day expedition. I talked about what collaboration looks like on a wilderness expediton and also talked about how they might use the S.P.E.C. teaching approach when teaching classes on their trip.
What was particularly interesting was that there were two students and an instructor from the Dominican Republic. I hope they have a great trip! |
