The guy I saw in CT, had one of his many birch bark canoes there - a 12 footer which he paddled from CT, up the coast to Maine, to Canada and down the canal. All the time camping and living out of it.
He said he had to make some repairs and he carries extra pitch which he softens with a fire and used that. Who needs epoxy? I can't remember his name but the real deal with buckskin pants and hand sewn clothes, indian moccasins, stone tools and a sewing kit made with a quill. A white guy who looks like he's right out of Jeremiah Johnson.
