I paddled down the Thelon twice, 2002 and 2019. This slide show will show impressions from the 2019 trip, paddling the Clarke/Thelon as part of an organized group trip organized by a commercial outfitter Jackpine Paddle.

I paddled down the Thelon twice, in 2002 with one friend, and in 2019 with my wife and daughter as part of a guided tour. I have some funny wildlife stories to tell, but also want to compare canoe versus kayak on wilderness trips, and joining a guided tour versus going without.
This first part will cover the 2002 trip that I took my friend Will.
Part 2, a week later, (Jan 26) I will talk about the 2019 trip that was organized and led by Jackpine Paddle.

Please join us at the 2020 Mike Wevrick Lecture and Wine & Cheese Social, which we will be hosting as an online presentation Saturday the 21st of November at 7 to 9:30pm.
So; your place, your wine, your cheese, and get comfortable.
Members Doug and Lisa Ashton will give a presentation titled “Quarantine Quetico” about their fly-in trip to Quetico Provincial Park.
The Zoom meeting will open around 7 pm, when you can sign in.
From 7 to 8 pm, we plan to set up small virtual rooms so you can chat with others. This will be like the small groups that formed when we were at our traditional get togethers. You will be able to jump in and out of these chat groups as you see fit.
Doug and Lisa's presentation will start at 8 pm. The presentation is intended to be interactive and if you have a question just use the chat or raise your virtual hand. The moderator will coordinate the questions. In general, the presentation will be 45 minutes long followed by 15 minutes of Q&A.
From 9 to 9:30 PM we will allow for more Q&A or more small virtual chat rooms.
At 9:30 PM the Zoom call will end.
We plan to have a Zoom login practice session at 4 pm for folks that want to test their set-up and ask questions. This is the practice session link.
