Day 2 of 4
Saturday, June 15, 2013: Winchell Lake, Omega Lake, Kiskadinna Lake

Since Friday was a long day of padding, we took it easier today and traveled into Kiskadinna. We decided to make this the far end of our loop and spend the next two days making our way back to Poplar. We took the westernmost site on the lake and were treated to a beautiful evening and sunset. Dinner was hot dogs and brats. This site had a small bog to the north, and at night we heard lots of critter activity in that direction, but being bone tired helped ensure we slept. Bug activity throughout the trip has been heavy on the mosquitoes.
