i'm not sure what causes it, actually, but looking at when it started that could be a cause. he might not be able to edit his post because i think that is a function that disappears after awhile.

Nice shot, never been there when the leaves are turning but Royal River is one of my favorite places to paddle.

This picture was from May of 2010. My son and I had day tripped from McFarland to Fowl Lake. The fishing was good on Fowl so we stayed late. We slowly paddled the Royal hoping to see a moose. As it started getting dark the peepers came out in force. We just hung out until it was almost dark. It was a magical place. Fortunately I had a headlight with me as it was completely dark when we got back to the landing. My son still talks about night.

found this birdy at Gooseberry Falls info center one early April morning.

Ozarkpaddler... i'm going to guess this is somewhere on the granite river, but i did hear that you paddled the cross river one time, silly you. i don't do moving water so most of my granite river trips have been from sag to gunflint or from larch creek to gunflint.

It wasn't MY idea to paddle the Cross (LOL)! The pic was the narrows above Little Rock Falls.

this photo is from 2015 and shows a team making the climb off gunflint lake. it's a steady climb for about 1.5 miles up hill. not sure which musher this is.
