June 23rd. Brule Lake, North-Central campsite just SW of Echo Lake portage. A calm clearing after a stormy day while exploring jungle like nearby waterfalls. Who would have thought the BWCA could feel like the Amazon?

"Boundary Waters Rainbows" caused by scattered thunderstorms in the Kelso/Sawbill area. On a related note, here's a link to time-lapse photography of the lifecycle of a rainbow over Sunday Lake in Quetico, created by my husband.

 Sawbill Oct. 2012.......... This was the day that the tragedy on Alton happened a couple of years ago. Nasty Day! 30 degrees with 30 plus mile an hour winds and changing between rain, sleet, and snow all day. We stopped at the first campsite on Sawbill and these two were the only other people we saw out on the water all day.

Even with rain and major bugs, Mother Nature can still remind you why you do this every year! This was what we woke up to after a night of fighting bugs and storms.
