If you day-dream of the water lapping against your canoe and flip through outdoors magazines wondering how long it would take to portage to those mountain lakes, then this is the spot for you. It is easy to get hooked on canoeing, and once you do, it’s key to find others who share your enthusiasm. The pages here are designed to facilitate this community. Find Clubs & Organizations or Classes & Workshops to get out paddling with others and improve your skills. Learn about new routes by browsing the Trip Logs, the Photo Galleries, and the Route Finder. Post your own stories on those pages or communicate with other paddlers in the Forum. Consider a Solo Journey or peruse the Books & Media List. We can always fine tune our basic skills, but there also comes a time when you want to learn more—be it whitewater techniques, expert baking, or how to build a canoe yourself. Explore these pages to find the support for where you’re at and the resources to take you one step (or 10) beyond.
