Broke camp in heavy rain and were on the water by 8:00-ish after deciding not to wait to see if conditions would improve. Paddled about 4 hours to Williams and Hall in unending rain. After a nice shower we were on our way to Ely for a late lunch and then to Duluth where we spent the night before driving home to the Chicago area on Saturday.

I would like to extend a very special finger to the towboat and motorboat pilots who buzzed us on Newfound and Moose. We managed not to capsize or get pushed onto the shore after five went by in close succession multiple times.

Overall a great trip and we look forward to next year.
