Meet Janis Bell (White Owl)...suprized she will paddle again after the cold wet Yukon River trip!

Janis is truly a "Trooper" when it comes to determination in the wilderness. Here's a picture of her trying to get warm on a 7-day Yukon River trip. It was wet and freezing cold....in the middle of August! She kept a smile on her face and pushed on.
So, I was surprised when she wanted to come on another canoe trip with me. Here's what is attracting her to another wilderness canoe trip:
"I enjoy the company of the people that are going on the Algonquin trip. I love being outdoors - It just makes me feel better - being out in nature.
I love the quiet and solitude. To just be able to relax and be away from everything - to live in the present."
Wow! Can't beat those reasons! I wonder what Janis' camp name is....Trooper?
I really miss not meeting in person on Sunday nights. I miss your “this is so nice” comments!
