August 20-30 - Great Bear Rainforest (#s 58 to 64)

While working as expedition leader for Maple Leaf Adventures on board MV Cascadia I managed to get out for 7 paddles over two trips. I enjoy paddling these Aquaglide Chelan 155 inflatables. They are comfortable, track well and are not too slow! :)
