Trip Introduction:
Hey everyone, I received some great advice from this forum before our trip, so I figured I'd share this video my friend Lauren made. We set off from Mudro and basecamped on Basswood. Did some nice day trips up to Gun and Boot for fishing, as well as Lower Basswood falls to check out the pictographs and the falls. Needless to say the weather was amazing, the fishing was decent and my two first-timers did really well with everything. And we got a nice video out of it. Figured some of you might enjoy it.
