Leaving for Ely Wednesday, headed in om Thursday...

Going to be in for a Week

bringing Thermacell and bug dope And a bug suit .

Good rainwear.

Sounds fun that’s one thing I need to try

I went in to BWA in the early 90's for a week, ended up at Crooked lake on Friday bay. Nice country, hopefully you don't have the bears in camp we dealt with.

Sounds like a good time 330.June here is good fishing but the worst time for bugs.Same there?
The oldtimers said when the bugs bite the fish bite.

Spent many weeks there years ago. Four of us would go in for a week or more twice a year for about fifteen years straight. Would love to head back in, but don’t know my old legs could get to where we used to spend our time.. the further in ya go the better, we would set up camp on a couple lakes that kept out the granolas as we called them back then.

Love it up there. My son & I had the most incredible smallmouth bass fishing ever on Basswood. We've also been on the voyager's route along the border. That was pretty neat as a trapper, gives you a whole new appreciation of just exactly how tough those men were.

Enjoy, yes make sure of the bug dope.

Rootbeer stand is closed,, bring your own mixer....

That sounds like a grand adventure 330. Take many pictures so we can come along too. Probably have to wait till you get out but all the same time me.

sounds like a good trip, take lots of pic,

Bugs and rain always seem to be the biggest issues there. Seems you got that covered.

I think I'd bring my bee suit this year.

Closed? I think Dorthy died around 20 years ago. There are way too many people in the BW so I am headed to Northern Ontario in a week. I am sure there won't be any bugs up there.

Today We leave for Ely
overnight there... then Put in on Snowbank Thursday A.M.

Have a great trip, 330! The adventure starts when you walk out the door!

Moosetrot

Be a great place for a small bar
I dropped off a paddle in the 70's

That was the thing to do back then.
Bottle deposit was about the same as a rootbear
10 cent and 5...

We bent one canoe into a u shape and duck taped the leaks in another.
I remember them two padding in circles.

We did a long trip
If I recall there was a lodge in there someplace,,?
And a cool waterfall with concrete so the spillway was the only way over

I remember the black fly under the canoe on a postage bitting the out of me

And a girl named Jill....

We're on the Way to Ely finally.

overnight there and Put in on Snowbank tomorrow AM

If something goes bump in the night,,, it is only the goasts of past Nebraska....

Might want to bring some holy water....:)

My son and grandson did it for a week with the grandson’s Boy Scout troupe. Great memories and photos

Have fun
