Can I come?

Absolutely. If we meet any bears I'll only have to paddle faster than you. ;)
Seriously, though it would be an awesome homeschooling/family adventure. |
Be sure to travel down-stream.
Up-stream is a bear.;) |
I paddle pretty fast. The kids though... I would have to arm them (nothing lethal, just enough firepower to slow you down).
Actually, I'd be more worried about Champ than any bears myself. |
Any of those maps ( state ) trips would be so beautiful.
|
look at that, it ends at Old Forge. I wonder how long that would take to paddle.

They said about 40-50 days if travelling as a group, 60 if solo. They don't say how to factor in the frequency and severity and location of bear attacks though. So, the point at which a group trip becomes a solo trip may impact one's over-all trip time.
Jim, will they give you 50 days off work, or are you ready to trade stress for inner peace? |
Early retirement, I need it.

My shoulders (and back) hurt just looking at the map.
