Thanks for another great trip report, TB. Aurora is becoming quite the young tripper and I'm sure by the time she's 12 will be ready to guide her boyfriend ;).
I went in the Crab Lake entry years ago with my brother. We went up to Cummings and back, but did not hit all the other areas that you did. We stayed on that same site on Crab the last night, but it was so windy the next morning that we had to bushwhack to the portage. We came out on 9/14 in a blizzard.

One of the boys at her daycare has already proposed, so I guess you could say she's already way ahead of the curve. ;)
Thanks for the nice comments.
For those that might be interested....here's a link to the previous trip to this area that I mentioned in this report. Trip Report

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this trip report! My heart sang again and again reading about your adventures - as we too are a family of three heading to Crab Lake & Cummings next May - with an adventure seeking daughter!
For starters - you three sure aren't afraid of portage distance! You guys are beasts on the trail! This will surely be a post I will go back to again and again this winter as I look forward to our spring adventure!!
Thanks for your videos. We plan to layover on 312 since we are paddling across Burntside - i think we will rest it up at 312 for a day or two before heading up to Cummings. Then I'm really hoping to get the Island site 289. Did you guys check that one out? Otherwise I'd like 287 as well. I think I'd like to basecamp there for a few days explore neighboring lakes and then head back out.

+1 on all 3 things.
I thoroughly enjoy watching Aurora grow up through your trip reports. Keep up the good work :)

Thanks everyone.
We have been truly blessed to have such a wonderful child. Watching her enjoy the countless wonders of canoe country is a priceless reward from God that we cherish dearly.

Thank you TB for another excellent report. I was glad to see you write on this area of the BWCA. I have just started researching and will hopefully plan a future trip in this section. It appeals to me because of the long portages and the chance at absolute solitude. As always, it is great to see Aurora enjoying God's creation. Happy Paddling!!!
