We have a tradition of celebrating the end of a long portage on a hot day with a plunge into the water! Here two of us took advantage of the warm weather last summer on our route from Kawishiwi Lake to Snowbank Lake.

It's an awesome photo that perfectly captures the intended theme but, just a heads up, lindylair has already won a photo contest (February) this year.

Beat the heat with a cold refreshing root beer float at Stoney Ridge Cafe, post-trip of course but I think I'll submit a different photo.

By all means keep sharing!!!! You've obviously got a real knack for taking some great ones! Was not trying to dissuade you (or anyone) from doing so.
