Looking to practice before solo trip
I’m planning a solo trip in early September. I have extensive solo backpacking experience, so that part I’m not worried about. I’ve also done a decent amount of solo kayaking. However, it’s been literal decades since I’ve been in a canoe. I’m located in Minneapolis, and I’ve tried finding places here to rent solo canoes to get a bit of practice in, but I’m not having any luck. All rental places near the cities only have tandem canoes, or kayaks. Is it really a huge difference if I rent a tandem and get a few reps in that solo? Or will I be able to rely on kayaking skills alone and can just wing it once I get up north? (I’m not planning a route that’s strenuous or full of rapids, it’s beginner friendly…I just want to make sure I’m setting myself up for success)
