Re: Spare Tire
Everyone talks about if you could go back in history and see something.
On my list is watching early 19th C fur trappers with 20 ft birch bark canoes navigating rivers. In fact their entire lives. Those guys were the ultimate Rangers.

I've done it with a 16 foot birch, Gitigan style, the Indians still make them the old way.

My sons & I did 2 weeks on the Bowron Lakes, portaging a 150 lb fiberglass canoe. I still have that POS.
