At Last
I picked up the new Lund Alaskan last week and then spent the next few days installing and customizing to fit my specific needs. Different cleats, fire extinguisher
just there knife and pliers handy. I am still not finished mostly because I am awaiting delivery of a few more items.

In my role as Executive Director of the Maine Professional Guides Association I give the collective opinion of our membership frequently. Usually, it does include a story sometimes even one from this blog. But this time I am going the other way because I think that the story and comments are worth repeating here.

This is a good piece on why it makes sense to hire a guide no mattter where you are or what you are planning to do in the outdoors.
