when i was working at the Vets Hospital i did a lot of two week solo canoe trips to try and decompress from the stress..
i once went seven days without seeing anyone..thats no canoes far away across the lake..no overflights by the park service..no one on the carrys..at three days it was nice--by day five i was looking around and by day seven i camped at a portage in the hopes of meeting someone--midday day eight i found a lake with people and camped at lunch time just to be around someone---you really do let your mind run to odd stuff wondering if anyone else is out there--
