03/16/2009 03:51PM It was a tough month to judge as there were many relaxing photos to view. The winner of the February photo contest is Woodpecker! The trip report contest goes to Ho Ho for his picturesque Quetico tail. The extra hat goes to lmunch85. Thank you everyone for showing us a little relaxing moment in the BWCA. |

02/27/2009 12:51PM Taken during an August 2007 trip to the Johnson Falls area. The picture is me soaking in the spray from the pool below the falls - we were able to "lounge" around the area for the entire day with the falls all to ourselves - a truly amazing day! |

02/26/2009 08:33AM You know, to anyone who has never been there, these images aren't always the most inviting. Or is that the point? |

This is our ultimate relaxation technique. After a long day, long portages and a bath in the lake, we poured some wine and fished until sunset!

02/11/2009 12:50PM Ottoparts, Thanks for the compliment! I have to agree with you Kiporby's photo is the one to beat. That shot reminds me of a pose you'd see from an old man after a long hard day paddling and portaging. Isn't it priceless when kids seemingly imitate adults? |
