Solo Trip 2011 (EP14) (151 photos)
055 Fire by Night
A simple creature comfort. Night two.
054 Smoke Over Water
I was glad to have camp made earlier this day.
053 Evening Reflections
I love the calm of the evening.
052 Shadows Rise
As the sun set behind me, the shadow rose before me.
051 Shoreline at Evening
Near the southern campsite on Heritage Lake.
050 Abundance of Wood
Finding so much deadfall in and around camp (at least four patches of it) guaranteed that I had easy access to fire throughout the evening.
049 Southern Campsite on Heritage
The southern campsite on the western shore of Heritage Lake.
048 Low Water on Heritage Creek
Water was very low on heritage creek--mere inches in places.
047 Little Buddy
A frog in the waters of Heritage Creek.
046 The Beach at East Loon Bay
I made three trips across this portage, just because of the challenge of the climb. Here, I see my canoe and dry bag after making my first return trip.
045 Clearing near East Loon Bay
A grassy meadow just east of the western end of the East Loon Bay - Heritage Creek portage trail.
044 Nobody Home
Thankfully, it was abandoned.
043 Surprise
I'm sure you can imagine my surprise when I looked up and saw this right in front of me, at eye level. Along the portage trail between East Loon Bay and Heritage Creek (heading east).

037 Color Along the Trail
Color along the East Loon Bay - Heritage Creek portage trail.
036 Hen of the Woods
This mouldering specemin may be Hen of the Woods, another of the "safe six" edible mushrooms. I'll need to re-visit the area and find a better specemin before I'll be able to make a final determination, however.
035 Fresh Carpeting
Along the portage trail between East Loon Bay and Heritage Creek.
034 Light and Shadow
Along the trail from Heritage Creek to East Loon Bay (heading east).
033 I'm Lichen It
Lichen along the portage trail.
