Trip Introduction:
This is a spiritual trip where I try to come to grips with losing my ten year
old son Aaron to leukemia. I camp on Canoe Lake, travel to Johnson Falls,
and bushwhack into Rocky Lake. But mostly, this trip is about finding
peace that can only come from being alone in an awe filled place like the
Boundary Waters.
