11 Day Solo in BW and then 15 day Hunter Island Loop in Q (13 photos)

Newfound Lake

Final site. Very interesting little site on a 20 wide spit on the northern end of an island. Blown out by scouts from the Northern Tier camp, and motorboats going by constantly, but nice little site.

Tricky landing and unload for a solo. The landing is the slanted rock in the middle of the photo.

Gear Hammock

I made this little gear hammock to hang from the tarp ridgeline. All my clothes went in it. Worked well to keep things dry and off the ground.
