Christian Pilon & Bob Abrames - Modern Voyageurs

Came across this page of Christian Pilon, one of the original paddlers on the TFO reality show, Destination Nor'Ouest. Along with Bob Abrames, the two have logged several thousand kms in birchbark canoes with period appropriate voyageur gear.

Christian's album of their 2008 trip from Ottawa to Quebec City has some nice pics of their journey. Here are some select shots below:


The ride. Looks like the hull is made from stitched panels like my canoe
