It looks like i may be doing a solo 3 night trip starting October 11 and i was looking for some ideas. i have lodging in Ely on the 10th so i may just stay in the area. i have done Hegman lake before. i like would paddle in a bit and base camp it. Thanks for any suggestions.

Lots and lots and lots of options out of Ely. With a bit more info on what else you're looking for, we might be able to give some better advice.
I think *all* of the entry points out of Ely can work for a short solo. From Trout Lake into Pine on the west side to Snowbank into Disappointment on the east, you can't really go wrong.

I might consider a little river trip. The wind can be unpredictable in October on big water. Little Indian souix is a bit up the road but, nice lazy river. Minimal portaging. Plus, if we get an extra cold shot; less worry about water getting hard if it drops into the twenty's. Good luck.
Without the bad times, the good times wouldn't seem so good.

Slim Lake entry is a nice entry if you don't mind a shorter paddle. Entry point is a weird place as you have to off road it up a dirt trail to the place. Beautiful area but once you get in you will like it.
