shock of all shocks...it rained all night! lol


packed up wet, yet again. destination hansen lake.

the entire paddle to our next campsite is on a pool and drop system. its awesome!


as we paddle to our campsite on hansen we notice an outfitters outpost camp.


this day we will end up seeing 4 canoes and a few boats. today will be the only time we see anyone else on this trip.

we take a REALLY crappy site, downed trees everywhere. thats a first for us so far.


the wind has done a 180...blowing out of the west now. hopefully the weather will turn now. not a lot to write about today, we pretty much hunkered under the tarp to avoid the wind and on and off rain.

despite the weather we still enjoy a nice fire tonight. its so easy to find good firewood so close to camp...and has been the entire trip so far.
