We woke up around 7am, ate quickly and packed up. We were on the road at 9am.
I know I made this trip sound a little depressing, but we did take away good experience from this. We both decided we do want to come back, but we will pick an entry point that is closer to more stuff, and not so many portages. Or we will change the pads on the yoke so it is a little easier.
I will remember the quietness of the BWCA when it wasn't raining, and I will remember sun bathing on a giant rock and almost falling asleep. I will remember that even though my girlfriend and I got frustrated with each other at certain points, we over came it and it shows how strong our relationship is. And we will not overpack next time!
If it wasn't for the weather, I think we would have had a better time. The weather was rough on us newbies, but it didn't turn us away from the bounday waters. Plus a lot worse could have happen.
