Day 7 of 16
Friday, August 04, 2023 Easy day today....took the first site on the Kawishiwi River. Scenic and a zillion blueberries. The portage into the Kawishiwi was very pretty...cliffs on the other side of the creek. The campsite looks heavily used and has foil in the ashes.

Saw two groups before noon, but we've really seen very few people this year. Skies are threatening rain and it's cooler today. Collected firewood, set up camp, picked 2 cups of blueberries. Saw a grouse on a portage trail, and in camp a snapping turtle and garter snake.
