| Lower Crowsnest - Day 1 - Just before we discover that the canoe Judy and Karen borrowed from behind the wood pile was not the right Old Town Tripper from behind the right wood pile - it was the other Old Town Tripper from behind the other wood pile. This one had a foot long crack right through the side plus two more in the bow. Duct tape to the rescue! |
