| Having been in business for over
16 years conducting camping and canoeing vacations, we have
learned what works and what doesn't. The following companies and
their gear is what we currently use in the field for ourselves
as well as our customers during our deluxe kevlar outfitting
packages.

think Marmot adds many nice touches, such as especially well
designed gear pouches inside the tent, and super-sturdy tie-out
loops. |
