I have to say, the wind that day on Seagull was pretty impressive. We were very grateful to have found a site that offered some shelter. I appreciate the offer to have shared. If our last chance at a site had come up short the plan was to resort to begging to see if we could share one :). This my second trip into the BWCA. The last time I went was when my second youngest son was 10 in May of 2015. We had some nice all day rain events that tripped and got snowed on as well. It really made the weather this time seem pretty tame. I am blessed to have a wife who is always up for an adventure. My kids have all been out on overnight backcountry trips from a very young age (my eldest's first backpack was at 2 weeks of age) and as a result they all seem to be pretty resilient and willing to roll with the punches. Cyclones30 and boonie, thanks for the kind words. Danny |

We would gladly have shared our campsite if you had asked also. The wind really was a bear that day; we were grateful for God's protection. But the wind was the reason why we had as good of a northern lights night as we did. Man you got a good picture. Joseph Pates from Seattle area |
