Wednesday, August 06, 2025 Rained overnight, woke up to occasional sprinkles. I've been experimenting with modifications to my cooking routines....and it turns out that rehydrating hash browns in cold water works great, and potato pancakes can be cooked on the solo stove. We also had our bacon today for a treat, then went paddling around this end of the lake, since we didn't really see it on our last time on Fourtown.

The first portage towards Horse goes right through the campsite there, so hopefully it's not occupied tomorrow, or at least they're early risers. Then we looked at the campsite down the bay from us, which has remained unoccupied while we've been here. It's pretty poor. There's one tent pad, in full sun, with blackberries starting to grow in it. It's small. Maybe would work for hammocks.

Back in camp, we found a very nice stainless pulley stuck way up in a tree. It took awhile, but we managed to get the pulley and some of the ropes down. There's still a fair bit of rope and a rope-wrapped rock stuck up there. Got a swim in...it was briefly hot and sunny.

We've got 4 days left. Looking forward to seeing Ole again and finding out how much our new puppy, Suzie Q, has grown. Not many pictures today, just the sunset.
