Digging through our stack of camping gear and came across the Biolite stove. As it burns twigs or leaf litter, even kangaroo poo, it creates electricity which drives a blower which increases the burn efficiency. Surplus electricity could charge a device back then. Now not allowed in Nat Parks

Watching the Rolex Sydney to Hobart yacht fleet go past Cape Raoul on the Tasman Penninsula. I don't think the wind is doing any favours to the tired crews.

Maybe the final Saturday paddle for 2024, and we get near perfect conditions on the Huon River in Tasmania's South. #canoe #kayak #kayaking #seakayaking #cotdbp #churchofthedoublebladedpaddle #tasmania

Sometimes paddling is about solitude and nature. Other times, it's about friends. #paddlechurch #canoe #kayak #kayaking #seakayaking #cotdbp #churchofthedoublebladedpaddle

Wondering if there are less kayakers on BlueSky than there were on the 2024 Yukon1000... #kayak #kayaking #paddling #paddler #yukon1000 #churchofthedoublebladedpaddle
