I am new to this forum, but excited to scroll through old posts to learn from you all before our upcoming trip. Thinking early June or early September... starting on a Tuesday to avoid crowds? It will just be my husband and I with our two young kids, 2.5 & 5 yrs old. We are avid hikers/backpackers so the kids have plenty of experience with logging miles, but they have very little canoe experience. We're looking for easier portages and as much solitude as we could get from a short easy trip... and a sand beach to play on would be amazing (I know, I know, asking for a lot!). We're looking on the Grand Marais side for a two night basecamp with a day trip. Which of these (or something else entirely?!) would you recommend? Option 1: EP47 - Poplar - Lizz - Horseshoe - Gaskin (out & back) Option 2: EP64 - East Bearskin - Moon - Deer - Caribou (out & back) Option 3: EP38 - Sawbill - Alton - Kelso - Sawbill (Loop) Option 4: EP36 - Hog Creek - Perent Lake (out & back) Option 5: something else?? Thanks for any and all advice! (-: |
