EP 62 Clearwater to Caribou: Johnson Falls, Palisade, Fishing, Fallen Tree Almost Hits Our Tent
by tcoeguy
Friday morning we awoke to a dense fog over the lake. We got some great pictures.
Me and one other had woken up early and decided to head out fishing while the other two slept. We paddled through the fog to the opposite shoreline and were once again treated to great smallmouth fishing.
We caught approximately 30 smallmouth in about 2 hours.
After heading back to camp and hanging out and eating lunch, we went on our day trip back to Clearwater Lake to the palisade overlooking the lake.
We were told of a small trail that leads up to the top. After some searching of the shoreline, we were able to find the start of the trail. We parked the canoes on the shore and headed up the steep trail to the top. It took about 20 minutes to reach the very top. The views were amazing and it was one the highlights of our trip. These pictures just don't do it justice.
We spent some time enjoying the views and then climbed back down the trail and headed back to our camp on Caribou. We finished the day by eating the walleye from the day before and it was spectacular.
