Hey all, many of you may have heard about the storms in the Boundary Waters this past weekend. If you haven't, well, they were pretty rough. Straight-line winds of 140MPH and trees flying everywhere. Here is a question I'd like to pose to the list: What would you do in a very bad storm situation? Snuggle deeper in to your sleeping bag and hope the seams hold? Tie yourself to a big tree (or perhaps Canadian Ballast Rocks)? Hide under an overturned canoe? Crawl into a kayak cockpit? Tie a towrope to a tree and then to a canoe/kayak and set yourself adrift on the water (avoiding falling but not airborne trees)? Run screaming though the woods? -Patrick *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Jul 06 1999 - 11:34:43 PDT
