In the winter of 2003, I was fortunate to be invited to join the crew at Bell Canoe Works (now Northstar Canoes) for an event they called the Bell Experience. To familiarize media people and retailers with their boats they put together annual trips like this to cool places - and my year was Florida! We spent our days on several rivers in central Florida and ended up enjoying some freezing weather. Cool in more ways than one! Here are a few photos from that trip, which reminds me I need to get back to paddle more water in Florida…in warmer weather.
