Great report and images. My very first trip to the BWCA was that area and I spent several nights at the beach site on Frost. Great site and we also had great luck fishing by the large boulder. Caught my first and only trout there.

quote bear bait: "quote Koda: "BB, what camera & lens combination(s) do you use? Do you also use a tripod? Very fine photos, indeed."


thanks koda,
the majority of the pictures were taken with a nikon D200 and 80-400mm vibration reduction lens. this was one of only a hand-full times i didn't bring my tripod along. nearly all the photos were taken while sitting in the canoe."



I'm impressed by the clarity of the long zoom shots. If I weren't so protective of my Canon 40D (essentially the same as your Nikon) I'd take shots from the boat, too. Maybe I need to loosen up a bit....

quote cowdoc: "Great photos.....they tell a great trip report. What kind of canoe ya drivin?"


thanks cowdoc,


the canoe is a Freedom 15/3 solo by Bear Mountain Boat Shop.
i didn't get it fininshed in time for this trip, so i ended up taking it with-out the decks or graphite bottom. only two coats of varnish, the last one drying on the way up :)


here are some pics of the finished canoe on my 2009 trip.
