The trip started out well, aside from having to get up early after not getting to camp until about 11:00pm the night before and having to put up tents in the dark.  In all there were 23 happy campers in 12 canoes, and all got home safely - some were a little  wetter tahn others - but safe.

The excited canoers (canoeists?) at the beginning of the trip.  Notice the smiles.

Along the way there were plenty of stops where the guys could attempt to kill themselves.  On the left Moritz and Johan climb a tree for a better view.  On the right Moritz proves that Germans can't fly.

TOP:   Lunch, Peace River style.  It's amazing how good a sandwich can taste - especially if it is the only thing around!

After a day in a wet canoe a warm fire can feel really great.
