A couple of weeks after this trip, Aurora & I headed back up the Gunflint Trail to the first ever BWCA Expo. The flowers, animals, Chik-Wauk museum & friendly folks at the Expo were all enjoyed by both of us. But, Aurora really got a kick out of the beach at Blankenburg Landing and, of course the guy with the big white beer (beard)- aka Dan Cooke. :)

Great report. Having a little one myself this sets the bar pretty high. Lol. Hope we have as much fun next year on my wife and boy's inaugural trip.

I truly enjoyed reading your trip report which took you through some of my favorite places. I enjoyed the pictures - it's nice to see the area is really "green" as opposed to the moonscape it was about 6 years ago. Aurora is a very lucky little girl to have wonderful parents who are instilling their love of canoe country to her.

I always enjoy reading your reports and can't believe how much Aurora has grown. It's fun to see our children's awareness of the BW bloom! Our youngest, now 10 1/2 took her first trip at the age of 2.

Your campsite on Gabi was really unique - almost looked like you were on the barren lands.

Great photos and video. Thank you for sharing your trip.
