Canoe camping is best camping. Share your stories, discuss your methods!

Allow me to share my tranquil little story to start off:

Last summer I went out camping with my father. He has had a canoe lying around unused for years now and finally we decided to just get out and bloody use it. We cleaned it up, packed the car full of anything and everything we imagined we could use (including loads of essential and not so essential provisions), strapped on the thing, and were off to the nearest canoe friendly lake system.

It was simply the coziest shit ever. The nature was wonderful, so was the weather, and being out in the open waters you always have a good view on the surrounding landscape. Whenever you get tired of paddling you simply stop, let the other one take over or simply drift until you feel like picking up the pace again. I'm not very fit or strong but we made pretty good progress and I didn't even break a sweat.

Whenever we felt a little hungry we just pulled up on a beach and had some coffee and something small to eat. Halfway through the day we decided not to return but to sleep over for the night (we had brought a tent just in case we felt like it). We paddled until the low water combined with a particularly shallow stream didn't allow us any further, but we conveniently found a camping spot near the end of that last stream as the sun was starting to set. We cooked some food and called it a day. We spent the next day going back, satisfied.

Best /out/ experience of my life, definitely doing it again this summer, except I'll be out for more than a night for sure.
