This is where I chronicle my paddling adventures on a regular basis. Most of these adventures are based in North Carolina where I live or in northern Wisconsin where I have a summer home. Most adventures are day trips, but I usually do a few overnight trips each year with one being around a week long. I hope these paddle reports help you follow in my path and inspire your own paddle adventures
