Interested in tales of Klepper kayak use? I've just begun re-reading 
John McPhee's superb "Coming into the Country," his 1976 nonfiction 
account of Alaska and Alaskans. McPhee is a long-time contributer to New 
Yorker magazine. The account details river trips in Klepper singles and 
a tandem down rivers in the Brooks Range. Fishing, grizzly bears, rigors 
of kayak paddling and maintenance, developer-conservationist 
battles--it's a great read.
