I suggest going in on Moose and getting to a remote part of Knife. Day trip from there or keep going. |

We want to see a lot more fish than people. Base camping from one or two sites with the ability to explore and fish day to day. Lower risk of intimidating water for my youngest who has Down syndrome - he'll be fairly limited helping me maneuver in rough seas. We are planning on six days and are willing to paddle hard getting in and out. Thanks for your suggestions! |

x2jmorris: "Two separate areas Cyclone. Pictographs are a lot closer. Rock face is amazing though... but it is a trek. But all short portages and small lakes isn't terrible if you are just carrying a canoe." I'd be interested in knowing where the "rock face" is? Always looking for unique places. |

Here is a photo of it and it is in my opinion worth seeing. I think people jump from it but not this guy. |

Baker Entry 39 leads to South Temperance Lake. It is a bit of a jaunt but not terrible. Camp there and you can fish there, go north to North Temperance, check out the side of Brule without dealing with the entire lake. You could even make a day trip to Cherokee (a beautiful lake). One of my personal favorites is Kawishiwi entry 37. Go north to Malberg Lake. Once you get to Malberg you can go a ton of places. Some pictographs nearby and the largest rock face in the BWCA is a few portages past. Fishing is great. Kind of a popular chain but you would be far enough in to where it isn't really crowded. Those are my two recommendations |
