    EGL Spring 2017 - Return of the Voyageurs - The Cedar Tough and the Marshmallows

    I'm going to get this trip report going, but this report will be a little different because the real story will have to be told by "The Cedar Tough"; four amazingly hardy trippers who literally travelled through hell and high water to complete the Canoe > Cedar > Opeongo loop in the Spring of 2017. Paddling from dawn to dusk, running down and slogging up raging, swollen rivers, battling icy waters and four foot waves, the four; ConnieB, Iguana, KeeWayKeno and Quiet managed to cover some 160+ kilometers (100+ miles) in six days, if you don't count the last rest day with the Marshmallows. If you've ever paddled and portaged in the Boreal, as I have for the last 40+ years, know that these folks took tripping to the limit; if you haven't hopefully their report will give you a sense of it.


    Left to right: Quiet, Iguana, ConnieB, KeeWayKeno

    Raise a shout of praise for The Cedar Tough!!!
