"Michael Lampman" <mlampman_at_solitaireboats.com> asked: > Is there a shared repository of paddling waypoints that I have missed? I suspect many folks who paddle wild areas are loathe to broadcast the exact location of their "special spots," instead leaving the discovery of those spots to others who also enjoy the taste of the process of discovery. I have now and then shared the location of special campsites with friends and acquaintances, but would never supply a waypoint for such a spot to a widely circulated repository -- for all to home in on. Likewise, I would rather not know, in advance, of someone else's special spot. I'd rather discover it myself ... and bask in the illusion that it was an unknown treasure. For me, the process of discovery is a part of the joy of wild places. -- Dave Kruger Astoria, OR *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
