Don't Libri GmbH Don't Forget The TP: Lessons Learned The Hard Way In Algonquin Park Paperback

When Drew got back into canoe tripping after a long break, he started with a simple goal: to make up for lost time. Armed with his pack, his canoe and warm memories of long-ago trips, he set out confidently to explore one of Canada's best-known paddling destinations, Algonquin Park. He quickly learned that confidence does not equal competence. The pack wasn't always full, the canoe wasn't always pointed in the right direction, and sometimes warm just meant hazy.Don't Forget the TP is the story of a decade of canoe trips and the lessons learned along the way. It's the story of brutal portages and relentless blackflies, of storms he shouldn't have paddled through, and decisions he shouldn't have made. Above all, it's the story of a man slowly realizing that canoe tripping is about much more than getting from one lake to the next.Funny, honest and instantly recognizable to anyone who has ever thrown themselves into something they had no business trying, this is a decade of adventures in Canada's backcountry, told by someone who learned the hard way and kept coming back for more.EDITORIAL REVIEWS:"This is a funny and honest book about canoe tripping in Algonquin Park.
