Saturday, August 31, 2013 after a great evening, we packed the day pack and headed to the border trail to hike east of the falls. we were so happy with our new home on duncan lake. the day was absolutely gorgeous. we hiked the trail all the way to the first trail camp site on rose lake. it was a good hike. the air felt great, and we were revived and thankful some change was in the air. the skeeters were still bad, but at this point, i didn't care anymore. we had been up here long enough that canoe country was doing it's magic, and making me feel so good. paddling back to our point site i knew our week was winding down, but we were so happy it was ending on a cooler note. we swam, ate supper and hung out in the hammock and watched the day turn to nite. a cloudy evening would keep the stars hidden as thunder rolled again from the west. as we lie in our tent, we both agreed if sunday was rain, we would head out.
