I’m just going on 9 yrs... I don’t think I joined right away. Was more seeking out wcpp info and joined that other site... haha. Stumbled across this one and the rest is history.
Sure been fun... good people here.

Look like it was 7 years yesterday since I became a member! I was trolling around here a little while before that though.

You all are the best! Every year I go through a cycle when this time of year I’m getting all excited for my trips and obsessively checking for new posts. Then after my trips happen, I tend to tune out. But every year I tune back in I realize how great this community is. I’ve learned a lot from you folks.

Has anybody considered an anniversary camp out celebration for the entire site? Maybe around the 20 year mark. Could only imagine the fun that would be. Of course, easier on paper than making it a reality.

11 years last January. Joined to do research for my first trip & other than a lull in activity between trips #1 and #2 I've been coming here multiple times per day whenever I'm at work and occasionally on weekends.

Ditto for me, I have no idea how long it's been? I just know I've been in love with the BWCAW since 1984 and I browsed but rarely commented on a couple other BWCAW websites until I found this one. I settled in and it's been like a comfy old sofa from that point, it just feels good.

Also, you are such a wonderful part of this place, Mitch! Your contributions in both posts and those wonderful leather can cozies that you graciously gift us with. THAT is "Over and beyond," my friend! Every time I post on this site, heck, every time I get on the computer, I glance at it and smile. THANKS AGAIN, Mitch!

It will be 13 years on May 22nd. I should be able to remember that, as my grandson will be 13 years old on the 24th. But I always have to find my profile and look it up. Seems like I have always been on here.

"This site has grown since 2002 from a few visitors a day to up to 10,000 visitors a day during peak season. "


Will be 8 years in August, but I was a lurker for many years. Met a member on a portage and he convinced me to join. I don't post often, but visit frequently.

Just go under or take the arrow (pointer) under where it says View Profile and then actually on the bottom of your entire computer screen in the lower left corner you will see your number. You do not go into view profile itself.
