There is nothing like a canoe trip for young and old to break away from their daily lives of
stress , noise and technology. I have canoed most of my 75 years in my province of Ontario with my wife, my kids and my grandchildren, and still take overnight canoe trips with them all to this day. Memories we all will never forget. Algonquin Park is still my favourite place to camp and canoe the interior.

One of my earliest canoe trips was down a Maine river when I was fourteen. It was a great experience. I went with a friend and his father (a Maine Guide and Old Town salesman) their dentist and his daughter. I made several canoe trips later with college friends introducing them to the pleasures and challenges of wilderness exploration. My daughter caught the bug and was a whitewater river-rafting and sea kayaking guide during and just after her college years.

Sandy Lam says:
They don’t mention the specific one used during this trip, but there was a reference to Salmon Falls Canoes. You can also learn more about their fleet here: https://keewaydin.org/2014/06/10/a-120-year-history-of-wood-canvas-canoes/
