Friday, August 04, 2017 We woke to a beautiful, cool, sunny morning in Back Bay. We ate this granola/cereal stuff with last night milk and dried fruit. We hug up our hammocks and lounged around and read for several hours, not wanting our trip to end. When we finally got a move on, we had difficulty finding the portage from Back Bay to Good Lake. We passed it, and considered taking the portage to Indiana then to Good, but my Dad decided he wasn't up for an extra 200 rods of portaging. We back tracked and found it quickly then. It was very muddy and wet, even though it had barely rained. When I stepped out of the canoe, I sunk in mud up to my shin. We crossed Good, and encountered a large group moving from Hula to Good. We had to push off into the woods to allow them to pass. Across Hula and onto Good, where we stopped off at the same site we had spent the first night on to have lunch. We had some ramen noodles with the remaining Triscuts and cheese, and our final brownie. We sadly exited Wood Lake around 2:30 PM. We stopped at Dairy Queen for blizzards and to celebrate and wonderful Wood Lake trip this August 2017.
