jhb8426	03/20/2018 10:48AM After a major home project from Labor Day through Oct., and a couple of repair projects on myself I'm looking forward to getting back into the swing of things. Waiting anxiously for the ice out.
mirth	03/14/2018 09:56AM mirth: "I'm here, this place is my prozac. Hope to get a trip in this year. Was hoping to do the Voyageur Challenge but that may have to wait. " Just pulled an EP 54 permit last night for entry on 8/13. Back to where it all began 10 years ago, or at least the first & last few miles. Going to do the short loop from Sea Gull to Red Rock & out on Sea Gull via Gull River. It will be me + my two youngest, one of which went to the BWCA in 2016 up the Granite River. A request was made for blueberry opportunities, so we'll see what we can come up with over a week up there.
OgimaaBines	03/06/2018 06:35PM Hey Everybody! Hoping to get up there in early-mid May this year. Haven't decided just yet where but I've got a hankerin' to start scheming...

CabSauv	01/24/2018 06:37AM Still around but have not been able to take as many trips as in the past. One possible for 2018.
SINCE1975	01/23/2018 06:53PM here!

BigZig	01/22/2018 02:15PM I'm still here (occasionally) and planning a July trip this year. Got two trips in last year!
4keys	01/20/2018 05:22PM Still here. Other than spending more time on the water, no real plans yet. Our son graduates from college this spring, so we might make a trip to wherever he ends up for the summer.
GOS	01/18/2018 08:00PM Looking forward to our annual trip, going back to Crooked Lake this year.
thlipsis29	01/18/2018 07:53PM Still lurking...one trip planned in August; can't come soon enough.

Stumpy	01/15/2018 12:24PM yo
BWPaddler	01/15/2018 11:59AM I'm here. Not as much as I'd like. Whoever told me that infants and toddlers were the hardest age to raise was dead wrong. At least where special needs parenting is concerned. Love them fiercely, and they take priority these days!
BearMandolin	01/15/2018 11:53AM Still here occasionally. Two good trips in 2017, planning for a May trip in 2018 with my buddy Hank. It'll be his eleventh - and probably final - trip. He'll be 13 in August. (That's him on North Bay last June.)
HighPlainsDrifter	01/14/2018 08:58PM Still here most the time in lurk mode. I had a good 9-day trip with my son during the first week of June 2017. I am not sure what will happen this year. I turned 70 in December (hated that milestone) and a trip this year is badly needed to boost my morale.
Atb	01/14/2018 08:35AM Here, stalling this post hoping to know where I’m going this year. Still don’t know much, but I’m doing a Canadian fly in over Memorial Day, a summer BWCA trip with my girl, and a bw or q fall trip.
tom14	01/13/2018 02:40PM Happy new year everyone. Working on a couple trips this year family and solo. Can't wait to get back to the north woods.
nooneuno	01/13/2018 01:23PM Still shamelessly lurking, and never planning trips more than a week in advance.

Kawishiwashy	01/12/2018 01:33PM AtwaterGA: "Still here. We will head to Canada again this Summer. Finally tired of driving from South Georgia and will try to figure out how to fly to Thunder Bay and then rent a truck to drive to Quetico and our camp near Quetico. Will be 73 this summer.

Sheepdogged	01/12/2018 10:13AM The aim is 2 trips per year; ice out in the spring and post bugs in the fall. The days are getting longer and my patience isn't.
Flashback	01/12/2018 10:10AM Turned 75 this December. Am still able to get downstream under my own power, and will continue to "endeavor to persevere". BOB aka thebob.com

Twins87	01/03/2018 02:58PM Still here lurking... busier this past year so less than I used to but it's still my happy place on the internet! Planning at least a couple of trips this summer, tackling Big Sag for the first time in late July. Excited to see new lakes and thrilled to be sharing the trip with a fellow BWCA.com-er who has become one of my best friends. This is from my July 2017 Lady Chain trip with hubby. Landing at our first campsite on Polly on what turned out to be one of my favorite trips ever. Happy New Year one and all!

After 40 years, no church youth group or men's group or women's group to organize, no other family along (altho those were fun, too)... Cheers from a wet and chilly Gabbro Lake -- mid-July 2017

missmolly	01/01/2018 10:45AM OCDave: "Newer to this site and learning a lot. I am a maturing backpacker looking forward to my first canoe trip through the BWCA in 2018. Happy New Year everybody!" Happy you're here, Dave! As a former backpacker, I assure you that canoeing is considerably easier. When I backpacked, water was always an issue: How much did I dare lug? Where was the next water? But when you canoe, not only are floating on drinking water, but it cools you. Ahhh!
