    Canoe trip ideas?

    After a long while, it looks like I might actually get out and do some things this season. Life changes will make this spring/summer open with more free time, and less time spent in hospitals and doctors offices.

    Any tips for overnight canoe camping in the south Jersey / eastern PA areas? I’ve done the Delaware Water Gap a couple of times, and it’s very nice, if a bit of a drive from the PHL airport area.
    The harder I work, the luckier I get.

    Not exactly what you are asking, but consider a Boundary Waters trip in the summer. Fly to Ely, MN and there are many outfitters their who can set you up with a wonderful trip.

    I seem to remember reading about some sort of canoe trail up in your general side of the country.

    Ah... here it is

    Don't know anything about it, but it or part of it might give you some ideas.

    Paddling.net is a great resource.

    Click on the Places to Paddle tab, and you will find many locations for PA and NJ. Also a map of launch sites.
