Managed to stay dry through the whole night despite the constant rain. It let up around 7:30. Made breakfast and started packing up camp. I wanted to get the cool site on Wisini, but as I was going through the first few portages the amount of traffic made it seem unlikely.

At the end of the Wisini portage I ran into my friends from Boulder and we talked for a bit. We hit the water on Wisini together and I found the good site occupied. I turned to head towards the site to the Southwest but I was about 5 minutes late, another group was headed right towards it. I knew the other site on Wisini (site #1470) had bad reviews, but I headed there anyways.

It was pretty bad, but I found a good place for the hammock and made the best of it. I'd had almost all 4 and 5 star sites at this point, so it was about time I found a 1 star site. I would not recommend this site to a larger group or to anyone with tents for that matter. I didn't see any good tent pads. Everything was soaked so a fire was difficult. Managed to get one going and the weather started clearing up. A beautiful sunset put things in perspective for me. Even though I had a crappy site, I was still in the Boundary Waters and life was good.

Day 11 route.
