Day 6 of 7
Saturday, May 23, 2009 Humped to Moosecamp Lake. Again, we secured a sweet campsite, the one closest to the portage in. Good canoe landing and the rocks are very interesting (if you like rocks, which I do). Glacial striations abound and I kept telling Nick that these are the oldest rocks on earth and they reach all the way to the core of the planet. Check it out, dudesickle. We fished under a cloudless sky and caught some snakes in the shady shallows, but nothing to brag about. We read books and chilled out in the afternoon. This Charlie Wilson guy is something. I fell asleep outside against a tree. I think Moosecamp was a logging area. If anybody would be kind enough to share any info about this I would love it. I am in the lumber business and am interested in logging.
Yes, that is a man reading a book at the end of the campsite. Thanks Nick for bringing your pillow.
