Thursday, June 06, 2019~Tin Can Mike Lake, Sandpit Lake, Mudro Lake Our day began with a fog filled paddle across Tin Can Mike Lake. It was a serene dawn with calm waters. The portage to Sandpit Lake was marked and had a beach to offload onto. There were boards that kept us out of the bog and above the mud. Making our way through Sandpit we could see the campsite just waking up and starting their breakfast. It was funny to see their demeanor as relaxed, while our goal was to sprint through the trips finish line. The last portage of the trip was the toughest in my mind. It was a complete climb for at least 40 rods. Then as with any great portage someone left equipment at the entry so a second climb up the trail was necessary. It was finished with an easy paddle back to our entry point on Mudro Lake.
TRIP DETAILS: Paddle Length: 40 miles # of Portages: 18 Portage Length Total: 1378 rods
