Canoebear! I have missed you!!



You raise a very interesting topic... not something I would normally contemplate. But of course head-wear can say so much about a person. The ceremonial head-dress so imbued with spiritual meaning and power; Bill's leather hat such a defining feature of who he is to all of us. Baseball hats have such a range, from cute girls with bouncy pony tails to truck driving macho guys with goatees. hmmm Tillies. Bug nets. Wool toques. Berets. on and on...

Me, well, this is my main reason for wearing a hat:

" Other Side of Mid-Night"

Chevy Tracker all packed-up + outfitted to head out on mid-night run fer another snowshoen adventuresum. Hav spent much time, energy + $ searchen tha frozen Superior Wilderness fer brush wolves in tha rough & rugged remote wilds.
Be wearen a trappers hat on top of head 'tis winter time of year to keep tha heat-in.
Plan to seek-out straight-lined paw tracks & find left scat,as well as, look fer any fresh deer, elk + moose dead carcasses that ravens call-out-loud about.
Snowshoes will take me & Renee on top of snow wher dog trail goes while kicken-up clouds of powdered cold snow behind us.
Immersed in winter night's landscape admid all kinds of wildlife. Need to get sum insight of go-en-ons of elusive wolf types way-UP in tha Northlands.
Hav to keep moven & not fall asleep in order to keep-up with wild dogs restless pace.
We'll be snowshoen with back packs full of provisions into tha sub-zero twilight under tha pale Wolf Moon's narrow beam head light, which will be reflecten, wild dog marks in tha fresh fallen snow.
Wolf tracken treks, hearen spine tinglen howls of evasive creatures in dead of night's cold air winds, nearby.
Even if U don't see them, U no ther lay-in-wait fer sum unaware snowwalker passerby.
Tracken 'tis a mystery in tha middle of tha night, Heya!

"Right-in Back's Yard"

Snowshoers packed fer Wednesday quick escape UP into West Central part of wher tha
"Gatheren of Waters" be.
Plan to make tracks, on out & back trails along bank of river that spews-out a dark tannin tinge.
Once we find a safe place to cross, we'll gradually work our way up to tha top most rocky ridge amongst tha toweren Jack Pines, so to gain a wary edge.
We'll be on warn alert fer any eerie howls/or aroused stir from active " Pioneer Wolf Pack" that runs wild down below in tha lush bogs,
thats swamped, with restless weary whitetail deer.
We'll be sumwher with-in tha vicinity of Lat:44.3266284 & Long:-90.6604152, woLfwaLken
in tha deep dark forest's wintry mix,
wher tha cold winds whips pine scent aroma all around.
Brain, hope U got our backs if things go south
& don't ferget yer tracker's hat, Heya!

Rivers, streams, lakes + wetlands, wher freshwater be it's lifeblood,
way-UP in tha Northlands.
Paddlen rivers, crossen quiet water narrows,
finden marked canoe portage trails & campen
along its banks.
These here Indian Waterway Trails take paddlers to a primitive campen site wher a team of 2 can set up ther A-Frame, with a mud room addition on doors-end & an annex affixed storage area on to back end. Tents back porch is a place to sit & view tha outdoors while tha rain fall still flows.
Explore + navigate flowage by canoe thru a maze of heavily forested islands without compass & map undertaken be naive, unless yer a homegrown Native.
Wildness, amazen natural scenery, & Black Bears in abundance, 'tis tha "Wild Spirit" of this
canoe trail/moccasin path lands.
Be wearen my campaign hat that be wind creased & "puckered-UP".
Wonderful pristine "Waterywoods", immersed under tha northern lights & waiten on Full moon arival.
Embraced by its unexpected encounters that encompass.
Headen UP NORTH come Wednesday morn,

Plan to rendezvous with endangered Loons.
Campaign endeavor 'tis inform them of Gulf
go-en-ons so they wood detour ther migration
out of harms-way.
Canoe-adrift, be like a broken branch with all its leaves attached floaten-down tha current, then be washed-up on shore fer abit, then to embark-on, to journey thru & disappear out of sight by way of natural process, be inevitable, Heya!
