Still here lurking more than posting, but always one of my favorite places to hang out.

Two canoe trips last year... Rockwood cabin week with friends from Chicago... couple of quick Sawbill car camping trips and spent time in or near canoe country (AKA Paradise) almost every month of the year. Heading for a long MLK weekend at Rockwood next week, excited to ski, snowshoe and hang out by the fire.

Planning a couple of trips next summer. One on the calendar for sure... me, hubby and Luft will be bringing some of Jeep Girl's ashes to Frost in July. And I am sure I'll fit in at least one more trip in June or August.


Here's Luft and me on Monument portage last year on our way to spending a week on Ester and Ottertrack. Hubby was the photog. We've become an efficient trio on our group trips.

Starting the world cruising in early May.


Our first 1-2 years plan is to be sure we hit all the great lakes as we leave out the St. Lawrence seaway to Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, and down the east coast. Land around 32 degree lat to wait out hurricane season- then to Bermuda, Azores, Portugal/UK/Ireland.

Mr. & Mrs. Ripple are here- we are actively sailing our 36 ft Cape Dory "Bertha".

Starting the world cruising in early May.

Our first 1-2 years plan is to be sure we hit all the great lakes as we leave out the St. Lawrence seaway to Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, and down the east coast. Land around 32 degree lat to wait out hurricane season- then to Bermuda, Azores, Portugal/UK/Ireland.

mirth: "The Venturing Crew might be doing a trip to Northern Tier for winter 2019-2020, so that may be my only time to see the wilderness."
That "might" has since been upgraded to an "is"! We'll be stepping into the wilderness 12/30/2019 and back out on 1/3/2020.

Had foot surgery 11/30. Been away from work & weirdly, this website, for much of the time I was off. But hey, I'm here now!


No trips planned at the moment for 2019. I need to see how the summer shakes out. The Venturing Crew might be doing a trip to Northern Tier for winter 2019-2020, so that may be my only time to see the wilderness.

I'm back again. Recovering from knee replacement surgery. Surgeon assured me I can go snowshoeing this winter and canoe tripping after the thaw. I'll need to learn to lighten the pack.

No injuries to the tent or otherwise. Planning 4 trips in 2019.

Still here. Planning a Quetico trip in June.

My dumb company only lets us take two weeks in a row every other year. We went to Big Bend State Park at the beginning of December. I think we saw fewer people than we usually see in Boundary waters the three nights we were there. It's a little more crowded now, though, due to the shutdown at BBNP.

I've not been to Woodland Caribou ... but dreaming about a solo trip there this year or next. Interested to hear more about yours. Where'd you go? What were your favorite highlights?

Present and posting. After 4 trips last year, down to one in 2019. Two weeks in Yellowstone and getting moved to FT at work really reduces opportunities for the BWCA, but one good trip in June to Fat Lake should make for a good start to the year. Maybe even an overnight to Eagle Mountain? Everyone have a great year and be safe!

Twins87:
Here's Luft and me on Monument portage last year on our way to spending a week on Ester and Ottertrack. Hubby was the photog. We've become an efficient trio on our group trips. "



Two trips to the BWCA planned so far for this season. As Twins87 said, we are headed into Frost in July and I am also headed into the Fairy area with SerenitySeeker in June.

I will likely squeeze in a few off the cuff trips if my boss is nice enough to give me a string of days off in a row. Four days off in a row and I'm there!

Just realized that I don't get in front of cameras much on trips.
