Any advice on yoke set ups for canoes that don't come with yokes? I recently bought an esquif Vertige and not sure how to portage it best. So far thinking of maybe buying the northstar tandem clamp on yoke.
The Paddler Co-op, located in Palmer Rapids, Ontario, has started fundraising in response to the opportunity to purchase the property they have been renting continuously for the past twenty years.

G'Day. Looking for any info I can get on paddling the Nottawasaga River from Nicolson to Baxter in the fall. What water levels are required and is there/are there preferred put-ins and take-outs??
Thank you in advance.
Cheers,
Greg
Hello , I have heard about self rescue techniques being taught in a swimming pool , is that available in the GTA ?
Thanks for your responses .

Does anyone have one? I'm dying to look one over, before dropping the money on it. Thinking of the 165, because it can be set-up tandem, or solo. I'm in a condo and tired of having to drive out of town to get mine where I've kept them.
I'd bring a small case of beer for the favour, doesn't matter which you have.
Cheers.
It's a long time between freeze up and thaw. How many are interested in more winter trips, next year?
- backcountry Nordic in snowy months
- lake skating in snowless, very cold months

On behalf of the WCA, I want to thank Peter for his years of hardwork and dedication.
Does, or did, anyone know Glen Hooper of Thunder Bay, ON? He worked for the OMNR as a wildlife biologist.
Apparently he wrote several articles for the WCA which appear on wildernesscanoe.ca when retrieved by the Google search engine.
His relative absence from myccr.com and YouTube suggest that he has recently died.
