>>612835>what do you plan on doing?Day trips, multi-day outings. I live near a big lake, so I thought it would be cool to circumnavigate it, then ride the river current back home.
>do you need to fit a weeks worth of gear?I can live for a week with just a haversack and sleeping bag, assuming I can get more food along the way, either hunting, fishing, or just shopping.
>are you going to be on large lakes?A fairly large lake, along with a river. Waves and rapids are both concerns.
>will you carry it lots?Mostly just to-and-from the lake, about a kilometer. If that sounds too long, I could get a roof rack for my van.
