Day 7 of 7
Monday, June 10, 2013 We wake early after a wet night. Turns out I need a new tent, guess mine has seen better days. The waters are glassy again, as if to say it's a travel day. Fourtown to Mudro is uneventful however I have a strong dislike for the final portage from Fourtown into Mudro. It was an amazing trip with out of this word fantastic weather. My plans to head north on the Horse to take advantage of the current and head south on the lakes was a great idea. We found out after our trip of the drowning on Basswood. That explains the helicopter traffic we heard while on Friday bay. My heart goes out to the family. It was a good reminder for me about complacency. I consider myself a safe canoeist however I admit I toyed with running some of the rapids, thank God I listened to my gut. The waters are a force that need to be respected. Travel safe and have fun. I'm already dreaming of my next trip.
