Hike The Smokies: Bote Mountain Mystery Rock
http://hikethesmokies.blogspot.com/2009/02/bote-mountain-mystery-rock.html
Interesting finds in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Bote Mountain Mystery Rock. I have seen this rock on the right side of the trail on upper Bote Mountain Road for years. When I first saw it I immediately thought of a corn meal grinder. Or maybe a mortar and pestle? Anyway, its been there for years and is intriguing. May 1, 2009 at 5:23 PM. Pretty close to Spence?

Hike The Smokies: Mill Creek Falls
http://hikethesmokies.blogspot.com/2009/03/mill-branch-falls.html
Interesting finds in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. So, here is the famed Mill Creek Falls. Myth or Fact? May 26, 2015 at 2:37 AM. Hi I have been researching the hike up to Mill Creek Falls. I know it is off trail (not sure why everyone feel the need to tell me this), will require climbing over and through obstacles, and is about 3 miles but I was wondering just how strenuous it is? If you had to compare it to one of the trails, elevation changes wise, are we talking. Abrams Falls or Alum Cave?

Canoe Restorations: The outwales are the toughest part yet!
http://canoerestorations.blogspot.com/2009/09/outwales-are-toughest-part-yet.html
Relocate. Restore. Refloat. Friday, September 18, 2009. The outwales are the toughest part yet! Once both are on, I will do the soak and steam bend technique. Not looking forward to that! If I pop these two I may have to go with a softer wood. The ash I put on my other boat bent easier than this! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Keel created and primer applied (Sept 5). First coat of paint! The outwales are the toughest part yet! Read my other blog. Joyce Kilmer, Slickrock and Citico Wilderness Areas.

Canoe Restorations: Keel created and primer applied (Sept 5)
http://canoerestorations.blogspot.com/2009/09/keel-created-and-primer-applied-sept-5.html
Relocate. Restore. Refloat. Monday, September 7, 2009. Keel created and primer applied (Sept 5). Lots going on quickly! First, I sanded the filler with 220 sandpaper, created a keel out of stock (had to do a scarf joint), created the outwales out of mohogany (another two scarf joints! Varnished the bow seat and applied primer. Now we are getting somewhere! That keel was tough to make. It has two angle cuts and I had to make a cove by running the stock over the table saw sideways. First coat of paint!

Canoe Restorations: Filler applied...now wait one month!
http://canoerestorations.blogspot.com/2009/08/filler-appliednow-wait-one-month.html
Relocate. Restore. Refloat. Thursday, August 6, 2009. Filler applied.now wait one month! It looks like a grey whale! Applying the first coat. The canvas absorbs the filler quickly. The finished product with three coats. It does look like a whale! The problem with this step is the filler in concert with the canvas shows every bump, nailhead, plank seam, etc. Its not forgiving! Perhaps the paint will help to smooth some of that away. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Old Towne is CANVASED!

Canoe Restorations: Linseed Oil Applied
http://canoerestorations.blogspot.com/2009/04/lindseed-oil-applied.html
Relocate. Restore. Refloat. Tuesday, April 28, 2009. The outside of the hull with the linseed oil mixture. Note how the brass clenching nails shine after they got lightly sanded with the hull! A BIG difference between. The older (55 year old wood) and the new ribs and planks. I did not. Realize the oil would make the lighter wood turn dark. But.its OK! Close up of the two woods after the oil was applied. 50% turpentine and 50% boiled linseed. Step and boy does it look different! She is STILL a beauty!

Canoe Restorations: OUTWALES FINALLY INSTALLED...NO BREAKS!
http://canoerestorations.blogspot.com/2009/10/outwales-finally-installedno-breaks.html
Relocate. Restore. Refloat. Monday, October 26, 2009. OUTWALES FINALLY INSTALLED.NO BREAKS! Ouwales created, bent and now installed! The South American Mahogany outwales took awhile to convince they needed to bend but finally I got them into place and used the original brass screws to secure themto the canoe. Now all I need to do is put a few coats of varnish on and we are ready to paddle! I took a long walk last night. Not a single "creak, crack or pop". Fantastic! Anna look what I am doing n your boat!

Canoe Restorations: First coat of paint!!!!! (Sept 7)
http://canoerestorations.blogspot.com/2009/09/first-coat-of-paint-sept-7.html
Relocate. Restore. Refloat. Monday, September 7, 2009. First coat of paint! First coat of paint has been applied! The red paint did very well over the grey primer. This morning I had to put bedding compound under the keel then screw it on from underneath the canoe. I hated to drill holes through perfectly good canvas! The problem with paint.it shows every bump, nail head, canvas bias, etc. Paint is very telling of the job underneath. Sort of like our life huh? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Canoe Restorations: Outrwales Shaped and Varnished
http://canoerestorations.blogspot.com/2009/10/outrwales-shaped-and-varnished.html
Relocate. Restore. Refloat. Saturday, October 31, 2009. Outrwales Shaped and Varnished. If all goes well it may be ready for water by Nov. 15. I really got to have a lot of sun to set the paint and varnish. In reality it needs to cure for about two weeks before being put on water. I certainly do not want the paint to come off in sheets!

Relocate. Restore. Refloat. Saturday, September 6, 2008. Planking is all FINISHED! Hey, I just finished the last plank! This is the ceremonial last plank which is at the left bow.

By the way, the canvas is in the cardboard box sitting behind Anna's canoe. Its almost time! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Ye haw.RIBS INSTALLED.

Mt Adams is located in some of the most difficult terrain in New Hampshire and is the second highest peak in the Mount Washington Valley. Mt Jefferson is the 3rd highest of the Presidential Range and is shaped similar to it's neighbors as a massive pyramid of sharp, broken rock. Hiking Trails in Georgia. Hiking Trails In NH.
