Monday, February 25, 2008 Eric was up early and had sausage and bacon ready with coffee and left over potatoes. A great breakfast to our last day. We wanted to be packed and on the trail by 10 a.m. and we were. The day is cloudy and it is snowing lightly. There is a easterly wind at our face keeping us cool. I guessed we would be out close to noon and we were.

The difficult trail that we took in also had to be taken out and thanks to our initial pass, the warmer temps and subsequent cooler temps, our path was basically formed for our sleds and it made things so much easier! I taped the whole portage with my video camera and watched it last night...what a gas! We saw wolf scat on the way out and lots of prints. We came across many wolf tracks and again, felt blessed for the chance to just witness these awesome creature's tell tail signs...well, it was just a thrill!

We walked for a bit and came across a quinzee which we had seen on the way in which was pretty cool. We finally reached our destination, and made it back to my truck and spent some time saying goodbye to this place. Each trip I have ever been on is etched into my mind and soul forever. This trip and experience, although short, was one of my best!

This picture is of the 'hidden' trail that we were shown. This is looking at the trail leaving Lake One.
