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. |

03/14/2018 09:56AMmirth: "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. |

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. |

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! |

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! |
