“Even though I’m not a kayaker, I was delighted by the stories in this book. The essential elements of memorable trips—the people we meet, the meals we eat, the challenges we face, and the things we observe—are weaved into each story. Mr. Yackel’s friendly writing style made me feel like I was his invited confidant for each adventure. While some travel narratives provide too many particulars, Mr. Yackel is a master at setting the stage and then allowing the reader’s imagination to fill in the details.”

“I had really enjoyed his first book and his second book is just as good. It is an easy and fun read, from beginning to the end. Although I do participate in my own paddle adventures, I think it would appeal to anyone who is into outdoor adventure. It has a good mix of outdoor experiences, including stories about the people he encounters along the way.”

“Don Yackel brings you right along with him on his many adventures. If you like kayak camping you will recognize the daily small triumphs and disasters that happen to us all. Highly recommended. Thanks Don!”
