Canoe Trips From our Website |
| 'Hooligan' has been posting a trip report in instalments of a trip he did some years ago on the Kanairiktok River. It is an exremely enjoyable read, with an extensive & humorous disclaimer. In 'Hooligan's' words, this is a trip report, albeit an old one, of a journey on the Kanairiktok River in Labrador. In Inuktitut, the river’s name means “the place with straight trees good for tent poles”. It was an unknown river of raging whitewater, narrow gorges and falls, set in an isolated, barren landscape. To say I was nervous about this river trip would be an understatement; I was scared shitless! To enjoy this great trip report join us here on the forum. | |

Without love of the land, conservation lacks meaning or purpose, for only in a deep and inherent feeling for the land can their be dedication in preserving it.
