Thanks for sharing, Pat. John is on his annual multiweek solo in Q again... good for him. My buddy is leaving for nearly the same loop in a week.

From a sat-phone conversation (the reception was spotty and it wasn't possible to chat for long without the call dropping):

John's on Trail Lake right now holding up for a day as the wind and waves are relentless. The wind ripped his tarp. He has not seen much sun in a week.

No problem getting into Quetico from Beaverhouse because there's an alternate entrance to the portage well before the river which is really flowing.

He has not caught a walleye nor a bass in a week. Only pike and LT.

He entered Your Lake via a route from Jean. He saw a group on Redpine but otherwise has not run into many folks in six days.

Snow and Little Pine were wiped out by last year's fires.
