Funny - it looks as though most info the author is giving has been collected from other peoples trip reports. I see a lot of stuff that I posted in there. I bet that if others look, they will see the same.

He mentioned spring creek as a possible route. I paddled this solo a half dozen years ago. I can't imagine anyone else has paddled it. When I paddled it the bwca was seeing record high water levels, it was dangerous and a stupid thing for me to have attempted. To suggest it as a possible route is irresponsible. However if you want some real wilderness paddling in the bwca, if your comfortable paddling a solo canoe through rapids running through willow thickets, this creek is gorgeous. Also be prepared to illegal bush camp.

Kinda where Spring Creek Outfitters got there name. Chuck's dad and uncle I think used that to get to Sunday Lake. Chuck found it easier to run the Angleworm trail up that way and in through bear trap river." the trail then went from sunday lake to resorts on the border. i've searched all over for any sign of the old spring creek trail. nothing.
