Nice report...really I felt like I was there. Seems like you all had a wonderful family trip. BTW....I can relate to "the fishing rods I had in hand were just irritating me beyond all belief." statement. My sentiments exactly. I would rather carry an additional pack then those darn fishing poles!!!!

Loved the report. Loved the drawings! Those will be special mementos in a few decades.

A very entertaining trip report. What a wonderful experience for your daughter. Well done!!!

DaSeibels - I really enjoyed your Trip Report especially your daughters drawings. She did a great job on the loons but I really liked the way she drew the look on your face when you were in the tent!


Sounds like a nice area you were in. Thanks for the Report.

Loved your trip report-great writing! I think Audrey's pictures are such a special keepsake. Loved her rendition of you in the tent and the beaver.

I couldn't tell anything from the picture, but if the plants you are asking about have a singular yellow flower at the tips, my guess would be you were seeing Yellow Eyed Grass.

Thanks for joining us with such a nice report. An enjoyable read about an area we have also enjoyed. Pleased you were not on the water with the storm, I dislike being on the water during a thunderstorm as well.

Thanks for sharing your trip report. Very nice.

I'm so glad you enjoyed the journal - I've been writing one since our first trip back in 2000. Audrey is thrilled that you like her drawings. We are giggling because she's actually our daughter, not our granddaughter :-) I always talk about how "old" I am, but we're 39 and 44. We used to do these monster loops, traveling 12-20 miles each day and setting up a new camp each day. Now that we are "older" with a little tripper along, we are changing our ways. Base camping is *really* nice - more time to enjoy an area and our time together as a family!

Wonderful! Welcome to the site. I wish I took more time in camp to write stuff up. Perhaps as my kids get older, I will do so. It's hard when you're keeping track of a 3-year-old. ;-)


I absolutely adore your granddaughter's pictures and that journal is a special keep sake for sure!! Good times, great memories...just wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice report.


Thanks for taking the time to share your story. With an artist like Audrey along who needs to bring a camera? :)


P.S. welcome to bwca.com!

Jenni,
What a nice report and such a special time with your grand daughter! I enjoyed the "bombing" episode a lot and could hear the laughter between you two.


I LOVE Audrey's drawings!


Thanks!
