The group for micro-serfs who'd rather be paddling!
this site is not active It is really just an archive of trip reports at this point, but it seemed worth resurrecting just for that. You find that lots of things are broken.
This virtual organization existed to serve its members, a group of friends
in the vicinity of Toronto, Ontario, Canada who liked to paddle together.
We didn't have any meetings. We didn't have any rules. We didn't have any
officers or structure. We just liked each other's company and we liked to
paddle canoes.
Feel free to read our trip logs.

Requiem for a Paddler
So many times
we sat in the woodsmoke of morning
as the sun searched out our camp.
We felt the touch of a Creator
whose name we did not know.
Someone conceived these places,
and dreamed the perfect shape of a canoe.
So many times
we would talk without speaking,
move with a knowing.
Someone created us,
not each of us, but the two of us
- the something that makes us as one.
You are packed
and leaving on a solo run.
I will follow in time
with hope that the current carries me
where you have gone
and we will once again sit in the rising mist
together.
I pray there is a God.
— Peter G. Gilchrist
