This was a great trip some years back. Guy caught a 32" Walleye (that I was privileged to net) and a very fun time. That trip was one of the first in our now Annual voyages as a solid "group". Great Memories.
Trip was on Brule lake in '03

*Disclaimer* I have to give props to low powered camera's Photo. This was a 2003 Point and shoot Camera. It was a Sony Cybershot. I then used Picasa. That is a sweet program, it did nice work. Let me know your thoughts.

** The Photo on the bottom (Picasa's "I am feeling Lucky" handy work applied) is my submission.

slabs of Graywhacke on La Croix.for years i thought this was some sort of lava flow but a geology map of the BW shows this part of LLC to be all this sort of rock.

i call this Bath Tub Bay because of the shape of the bay as seen on a map and the smooth shoreline.

it's just a level trail thru the woods.

I'm pretty sure my Dad caught a 19 inch smallie off those rocks in 2000.

Not for contest just sharing. I found this in very low water on Insula. It is clearly notched on one end and beveled to a point on the other. Many people have said this isn't an artifact but I read that very long ago the natives used this sandtone for spear tips. I also know I'm not supposed to remove these from the BWCA but yes, I took it home and it sits on a shelf in my bathroom. I'd love to donate it to a museum and get a professional opinion on the authenticity.

Hey there 108cneil.

I just bought a book, Dorothy Molter, The Root Beer Lady by Sarah Guy-Levar and Terri Schocke. They are the two women who run The Dorothy Molter Museum.

In the book is the story of the Ribbon Rock! It is actually a natural rock that consists of a banded iron formation. The ribbons are magnetite, jasper & chert. It is believed that it was carried to the region by a glacier. Pretty cool.

I saw the Ribbon Rock for the first time this year. It really is amazing! I need to pick up a copy of that book. I have always been fascinated by people who chose to live life in their own way.
Thanks for the reply!

I don't remember the exact coordinates but there are a few miles of hiking trails within the Soudan Mine Park. This rock is adjacent to one of the trails and gravel road.

On the southern campsite on the island on Finger Lake from my first solo trip a couple of weeks ago.

Even though it's late, feel Stumpy's photo should win this month. Everything about that pic is perfect.

That was me & yes, I made it.
That was 13 years ago....don't know if I'd try it these days. There was not much of a "running" start & it was uphill at that.
If the photo is late, don't make special consideration for me.
Thanks
