Day 7 of 10
Tuesday, May 30, 2023    Up bright and early, broke camp and on the water by 0700. The little sandy beach was bait as the campsite itself was one of the less pleasant I've stayed on. Glass water again and the portage was easy to find with the help of the SAR member's loaned map. Sure missing that bug net.    Two easy portages, a nice river cruise and I'm on Agnes by 1000. Just a hint of whitecap has me puckering now, so I stick to the portage shoreline and take the first available site. Not the best, but I've stayed on worse.    Put the yellow tarp up, cooked a hot lunch, took a nap and contemplated taking a bath. It's definitely hot enough.
