Day 4 of 5
Thursday, July 09, 2020 PAcked and made way to Fourtown where we found an amazing site on a peninsula close to the Fourtown-Boot portage. Passed 4 groups coming north towards Gun and informed them most sites were now open.  Campsite 1099 on Fourtown was open so we pulled in on a perfect day and set up. Fishing from shore was non existent, although one guy caught a average size Pike. The best thing about this site was the ability to hike the peninsula, and as we found out that night the view of the stars from the tip of the peninsula was amazing. Tried eating most of our remaining food that day since we were gonna pack it all out Friday. After staying up till around 2 am just looking at stars we crashed and mentally prepared for the Mudro portages the next day.
