Another early morning. 6am and got the coffee going right away. Carly got up and we both fished for about half an hour right from camp. Caught a small northern, couple bass and a couple walleye. Just enough to keep our spirits up. We made breakfast while I collected about 5 pounds of blueberries! Since we were not at an actual campsite, the blueberry bushes were abundant! In an hour I was able to pick a huge bowlful! We had a nice oatmeal and blueberry breakfast and started to pack up camp. After the day we had yesterday, there weren't too many worries for obstacles today, as we were very close to our exit point. We managed to leave camp right on time at 10:00 as planned. The morning paddle was mostly uneventful as we slowly made our way out of Fourtown into Mudro. There were a couple more carry overs and then the very intimidating portage between Fourtown and Mudro. Very steep, big jagged rocks, mostly uphill, sheer drop offs a hundred feet down only inches off the portage path, a couple of downed trees to contend with. It was like the end of boot camp. Oh, you thought you were out of here? Haha! Here's one more punch to your quads that already can't function. At one point along this portage I stopped to sit for a couple minutes and drink some water. When I went to stand back up I literally could not do it. I was trying, but the fatigue combined with the weight of the pack just left me in a squatted position. I had to ask my partner to help me straighten up, then I was fine. We were just about done. The one phrase we kept repeating aloud to give us strength was "BACON CHEESEBURGER". We kept saying it over and over again like zombies. It was the vision of the bacon cheeseburger that gave us the strength to finish our mission :) Once that portage was cleared it was a mostly simple paddle across Mudro and through the marshy winding creek that leaves you by the parking lot. We saw a blue heron right next to us as we paddled through. As we got to the portage, and the end of our journey we both felt a relief that we were there. I was overwhelmed knowing what we had accomplished and what we had seen and experienced together out there in the wild. I was moved to tears at the combination of exhaustion and desire to never leave this place and felt a true sense of pride for having done it. As ready as we were to go sleep in a real bed and eat a real cheeseburger, we were not ready to leave this place. We were in the parking lot at 2:45 and our ride showed up just a couple minutes later. The half hour ride back was surreal. First time moving so fast in days. Saw a couple of nice views of lakes on the drive back but nothing like what we had just experienced. The only thing to do now is start planning the next one.
