These are some of the pictures I took while on a 48 mile, four day three night Delaware River trip. The time frame was 09/20/10--09/23/10. Two people including myself went on the canoe/camping river trip we launched from Port Jervis, NY and finished at the Gap by Kittatinny, NJ. We saw in total six fellow paddlers on the river in those four days. Talk about solitude we had our choice of any campsite and saw three Bald Eagles.
