Take kayaks or not?

I don't own a kayak, but if I did, I'd bring it.

if you have the room to take them, do it. even if you only use them a time or two. if they are a PITA to haul, then I would say leave them at home.
if you use them a lot, then forget what I said, take them.

Maybe an inflatable kayak might be a worthwhile investment.

I predict you won't use them as often as Sue. She's been going there for years and lives in Whitehorse. She has a lot of opportunity to use them.

Also, those are perfect pictures on perfect days - beautiful, Sue! You won't have constant days like that!

Since you're only taking 2 months for the trip there is just so much to see and do and your days will be full.

If you're a die-hard kayaker then by all means take them but if you don't do it on every trip in the lower U.S. you might want to re-consider.

Sue, beautiful pictures! Next to last is my favorite.

Thanks folks especially for the pics, the kayaks are going!

Wow. Looks to me like if the OP only kayaks once or twice, it's his own durned fault! ;)

By all means, take them if you enjoy kayaking on beautiful lakes.

Kayaks? No experience. RVing without my mountain bike? No way. My toys come with me....use or no use....snow, rain, cold, wind, fire!
