I'm still reading, but as a person paid to write, I just have to share that you have tight prose. It's clip-clops along and keeps the reader's attention on the story rather than the writer.

I will paddle eternal, Kevlar and carbon.

quote Herkamer: "Is that good or bad? I assume good LOL!!"


It's very good! If a person has a good enough story, there's no need for gimmicks.

I will paddle eternal, Kevlar and carbon.

I enjoyed your report. I went in Mudro 3 years ago, up to Moosecamp and back. I camped at the same two sites as you. While exploring around the campsite on Boot, I came across this

good report I was thinking of Moose Camp thanks for the report.
I wonder why some lakes had more flies then other. Boot did not
have much but Gun sure did. Thank good for duct tape it saved our trip
more then once.

Very through report and a good read. Good to see the family back in the BW and living the dream. I did my first solo this year and I'm looking forward to many more in the future. Hoping you get your's in next year.
