Sometimes we just have to "make lemonade", and it appears that you and your group really did that. Lots of good memories and stories to tell. |

Glad you were able to find some alternative activities. We were fortunate in that our Mudro permit was cancelled the day we were supposed to enter, but we grabbed a Moose entry. We found out about the western area closure when we stopped for lunch at Upper Basswood Falls and were told to move east asap. I hadn't heard someone died in that storm. We were on the eastern part of Basswood Lake when it hit. We pulled over and camped early due to the lightning. So sad someone lost their life. |

It must have been fate that I was working on a trip report today that went through Oyster, Gebe, and out into Lac la Croix before heading out on Moose/Portage EP 16. It is a beautiful area and I highly recommend trying that route again. It might be silly, but sitting on the stone chairs on Gebe was more fun than it should have been. May the wind always be at your back. Thanks for sharing your trip |

Also, they were carrying fresh milk? I'm the last one that should be complaining about over packing, but really. I don't like Carnation Instant milk either, but I've never had a complaint about Nido, and I'm pretty particular about milk. |
