Sunday, July 07, 2013 I decided to take it easy, so I took another layover day here on Malberg. Very overcast, but no wind or rain this morning. I did a little fishing and caught some small mouth bass and northerns using top water lures, which turned out to be a lot of fun! I also kicked back and read, meditated, and napped. It was all very pleasant. Tomorrow I head for the south end of Polly Lake to position myself for my exit the following day.

I saw hardly any people today! I opted to camp on the last campsite on the south/east shore of Polly Lake (#1081). I did see the same USFS female agent for a 3rd time though, as she stopped by my campsite for a routine check! I asked her if I was being followed. Ha!

The sun came out in the afternoon with beautiful billowy clouds reflecting off the mirror-like water. Truly gorgeous!

Later that afternoon I was fortunate to first hear, ..and then be able to see a mother moose and her calf walking along the shore across a narrow channel from my campsite. Later that afternoon, the sun shown like diamonds on the water, with a slight breeze to keep cool and bugs at bay. A truly idyllic last full day in the B’dub!
