Just can't seem to get far from civilization these days.


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

Geez, I always just put mine on "airplane mode" in case I accidentally get service.


I have nothing clever to put here.

The furthest point you can get from a road in the lower 48 is about 19 miles as the crow flies. Even there, you'll see satellites at night and airplanes during the day.

We made it to Insula , 45 min before Dark. We found an Awesome campsite in a half hour.

One lake away from Alice...but our Campsite is so Nice we might just Day trip to Alice and fish.

Brings back memories. Back in 1991 we put in on Snowbank Lake, traveled through several lakes; Ima, Insula, Alice and Thomas to name a few. Found out quickly, short portages over mountains suck worse than longer, flat portages. Lol

The rifle has no will of its own it may be used for evil but there are more good men than evil men and evil will be corrected by good men with rifles.

I think I have the same canoe barrel. My harness is from Kondos Outdoors, not sure if they are still around. Had a lot of fun packing that thing around.

Those don't look like portagees, and I only see two.

I just got home from the BWCA a few hours ago. We went for 5 nights through EP#14 Little Indian Sioux and traveled 53 miles. Have a great trip!
