That site used to be our group's favorite site. About 6 years ago we arrived in the spring and it was all torn apart and some fish cleaning benches had been brought over from that island between there and Bottle Portage. It was unuseable in it's condition so we moved on. I'm assuming it is back to normal by now. Great site if you don't mind the boat traffic out front.

This has to be a tough one for the judges. I found myself looking at the photos in two different ways. My mouth drooled over gc428's combo, SIRT's pan scramble, and paddlegal's cherry cheesecake.

Some other photo's demanded a closer look for other reasons. Among those are pictures by superswamper, CIIcanoe, UncleMoose, Snakecharmer, thecanoeman, Blackstick, and TomT.

I suppose if I had one vote, it would go to TomT.

Thanks for the patience! The winner of the September photo contest is SIRT for his appetizing pan scramble! The extra hat goes to troutbreath.

And the winner of the trip report contest is gc428!

Thanks to everyone for entering!

Adam and moderators,

Thanks for choosing me for the hat! I would say I would wear it with pride, but Mrs. TB has already claimed it (since it was her good looks that won it!) Quite frankly, in looking at all the good shots that were entered, I am just glad I didn't have to choose.

Thanks again!

That actually looks delicious and I like the garnish.

I guess my hotspot didn't pan out for you, it drove you to catching crayfish.

thecanoeman - LOL! No, the fishing was great. But I've never seen so many crayfish! My son and I had a blast catching them. The garnish was my son's idea. Thanks again, BTW.

Hey Beamer,

That doesn't look like a the fire pit that was in my camp. I thought all fires were supposed to be in the fire pits they provide??? :)

My picture is were we set up a wind break behind a big rock and set up our propane stove to cook. It was very windy on our last trip. There aren't any pictures of our food but at least I can show you were we cooked.

You caught me! Yes, I dragged 3 big sitting logs up to my house and decided to eat my fancy meal off a lexan plate. Seriously, I don't know what reflections are, but I assume they are trees.

I have a few to choose from. Most are better quality than this one, but I like what it says. This was from October 2006 on Kelso Lake. It wasn't too late, perhaps 5:00 pm, but it was already cold and dark. The perfect time for chili.

Last Night Chili



This batch of chili is the very reason they invented solo shelters. Pretty much everything we had left over went into this pan of chili, Mexican rice, onions, 5-day old cheese, summer sausage etc. One more reason to sleep in a hammock.
