Entry & Exit Point: Mudro Lake (EP 23)
Number of Days: 6
Group Size: 8
Day 5 of 6
Sunday, August 16, 2015 an overnight rain made it a bit wet to pack up camp, but we got off to a fairly early start. We were rewarded with clear skies, but it came with a significant head wind that made crossing to the south end of Thursday Bay harder than expected. From there we worked our way acroos Papoose Lake, Chippewa Lake, Niki Lake, Wagosh Lake, Gun Lake, Fairy Lake, Boot Lake. Given our direction of travel, the southwest headwind and whitecaps on Gun were quite daunting, but we powered ahead to the turn and waited to make sure the rest of crew made it safely.
