New Book: Five Old Guys' Guide to Canoe and Camping Hacks

A new canoeing book has been self-published by Larry Cain, John Lockett, Michael MacNeil, Steve Ryan, Ron Jones, and Joe Mosher… Five Old Guys' Guide to Canoe and Camping Hacks.

“After more than 30 years of river tripping, a group of longtime canoe partners set out to share what they’ve learned along the way.

In Five Old Guys’ Guide to Canoe and Camping Hacks, they draw on decades spent on the water—setting up camp along wild shorelines and figuring out what actually works, often the hard way.

This isn’t a rulebook. It’s a collection of practical, experience-tested advice—gear that keeps you dry and safe, campsites that work, and simple ways to stay warm, fed, and comfortable while handling weather, bugs, and the unexpected.

Along the way, they kept a river journal. The guide includes real stories from those trips—some entertaining, some instructive, many from times things didn’t go quite according to plan.

At its core, the goal is simple: help others skip a few mistakes and get to easier, safer, more enjoyable trips faster—and maybe inspire a trip of their own.”.
