Time to move today. I got up and followed my breakfast routine. Today was apricot oatmeal, which in the end needed some more seasoning.

I woke Teresa up at 7:20 a.m., and by 8:20 a.m., we had had breakfast, packed up camp, loaded the canoe with all of our gear, and were paddling away. We paddled and portaged back over to Alder via Canoe. The portages with gear were much easier this time, probably because we were getting better at the entire process.

By 10:20, we had arrived at the southeast site on Alder that Dave had recommended. It was beautiful. The landing wasn't as nice as the one on Crystal, but the site was huge, and we knew that it would have an outstanding view of the sunset.

The tent was up in no time, and we went back to the edge of the site to look out at the lake. This proved quite entertaining for us. We watched as canoes came and went and as groups tried to decide their routes.

With the strong breeze coming over the lake, our site was cool and relatively bug-free all day. Lunch was easy - hummus. Dinner was an alfredo pasta with mushrooms. S'mores and other leftoves were consumed after dinner.

At the site, we had several jackrabbits, a snake, and squirrels. Teresa found a mouse in the latrine in the middle of the night.
