Fur Trades and Waterfalls
by CosmicCharlie
A fun day today going to check out Rose Falls and the border route trail heading east from the stairway portage. The hike is a bit challenging, but well worth the overlooks of Rose, Rat, South and North lakes. We had originally planned to get back to camp earlier in the afternoon and move sites to South Lake so we would be able to fish for smallies and trout there in the evening and next morning. However, we got back to camp a little bit later in the afternoon and decided to stay put. I am glad we did, as it clouded up and downpoured a few times into the evening and into the night. What a relief to have stayed in camp and stayed dry, even though it was not our favorite site for swimming, fishing, etc...
