nice read...hmmm, June 21st, if I'm not mistaken that was the day of the big wind on our trip...witnessed many trees uprooted or snapped off midway up, water tornados on the lake and white caps being blown off the tops. Yeah, it was a fun one!

Harrowing adventure cjrn. Kudos to your son for wanting to go back. How about the girlfriend?

It was a wild ride! I would have liked to written the trip report day by day out of my journal....but a few days had entries of "Wet, cold, and hungry. Still raining and windy. Will check ties on windbreak." The wind ripped one of my tarps. Middle of the night and suddenly my tent is laying on top of me....

You have a good writing style. You should consider writing a book. I like the irony.

I was surprised that they flew you out with that type of weather. You guys did a good job of dealing with the weather.
