Hello! I’m a new packraft owner - just picked up an Alpacka Caribou - and intend to use it almost exclusively on lakes and calm water.

I’m considering installing a skeg kit on it to improve tracking and cruising speed but does anyone here have experience with installing a skeg on a packraft? How was tracking before and after? Was it noticeably different?

I'm planning a backcountry camping trip to Cheakamus in early June but heard it is really muddy with the snow melt at this time.

Does anyone have experience camping in Cheakamus in early June and how bad was it really?
