I need your vote for my paddling picture.

Hit it.

Yeah, yeah, I know it is not a light weight item.

I voted — yours was the best. I see you are ahead so far with 64% of the votes :)

Sounds as if that was a great trip … even going heavy :) Have you done a lot of travel on them?

The Otterboxes and Pelican boxes are bomb proof as far as I am concern. However, they are extremely heavy. Due to long portages and fly-in weight issues, I have been moving toward an ultra-light style of paddling.

Nowadays, I normally use an Aloksak to keep my small digital camera dry. I like this setup better because it is quicker and easier to use. If I am expecting a lot of mean rapids I will use my small Pelican box.

It has to be a mighty special place to get me to bring the DSL camera in that big old Otterbox.

You've got a smokin' lead right now 172 votes! Good job!

I just wanted to thank everyone who voted for making my photo a winner.
