Grizzly - that canoe trip sounds awesome! The closest thing I have done to that was to camp and fish around the Kenai peninsula, but that was camping out of a pick-up truck (my wife wouldn't even consider a tent - she just KNEW the bears would get us!). Many years ago I spent a week canoeing in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area in Northern Minnesota, and it was a beautiful trip as well. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> I hope you get your Scrapper 6 - you WILL like it!
