Saturday, July 15, 2023 We wake up early this morning and send Noah and Christopher ahead of the rest of the group so they could get to EP 16 and drive over to EP 14 and pick up our second vehicle while the rest of our group makes our way out to EP 16. This plan works well and the timing couldn't be better. With Noah and Christopher travelling light, they single portage while the rest of our group moves a little slower. We packed everything away to make travelling easier, so I didn't even take any photos of our last day. We paddled and portaged up the Moose River pulling over several beaver dams along the way. As we made our way to the top of the last portage, Christopher and Noah return with the vehicles, and we load our gear and begin our drive back to Ely. We seem to make great time this morning, and arrive at Brittons in time for the best breakfast in town. Can't wait to start planning next year's trip!!!
