Nice report. I cannot believe that all those nights, in all that cool, wet weather you didn't have a fire. I'd have been burning just about any time I was in camp.

That must be a pretty remote area. Very surprised that those portages were in such bad shape with the blowdowns.

Good to see your Autumn mist is still doing trips. I had one back in the 80's but not for very long. :(

Thanks for posting.

Maybe your mystery night visitor-- bigger than a bunny, smaller than a bear-- was a fox. Had one in my site on Fenske Lake -- at least that is what the camp ground host told me the visitor probably was when I described what I heard.

Loved your tr. Envious you got to see so many creatures.

The fishing tip monologue is hilarious.

Nice job again Bannock. I always enjoy your reports. I was camped at the Kawishiwi Lake campground at the same time as your trip and it was pretty chilly. We're putting in at Lizz (#47) next week. Can't wait!!!!!!! We might have to take a nature drive up to the Iron Lake campground after getting settled in at Rockwood to see if we can see the resident moose.

Nice report Bannock. Great bull moose photo.

That wood still may be there, too. At least we didn't use it.

I got cold there right along with you in the first part. BRR! I hope to see a moose...and you got to see so many. Lucky! Sounds like it was a lot of work in the beginning, but worth it. Nice stack of wrist-sized firewood. ;-)

Nice trip report - you had great luck with seeing so many moose during your trip. Too bad the weather didn't cooperate - but it sounds like you had a great time anyway. My trip is coming up - 2 more weeks to go - can't wait!
