Trip Introduction:
We camped on Ogish, SA Knife, Kekekabic and Jasper... had a very relaxed pace and explored the sounds of moving water, hiking bluffs on Kek, and some decent fishing. Since my trip report is in the form of a link to a YouTube slide show, I am not sure how that will fit within the trip report template... We will see...
