Below is a map of our Boundary Waters trip. I’ve never really messed with Google’s custom maps so it’s the best I could do in a short amount of time. Anyway, the first blue place-marker was our entry and exit point. The red line represents the entry and exit routes and the second blue marker is the campsite. We made the entry trip in about 3-4 hours. It probably would’ve been a little quicker but we had to wait on some other campers at a few of the portage points. The exit trip was much quicker, we made it in about 2 hours or so.

We spent most the week fishing around the campsite, off some of islands (the smaller ones don’t show up on Google maps) and in a few of the coves. Fishing was pretty slow as the weather beforehand threw off the normal cycle. The weather while we were there was very nice, a few showers in the evenings but nice. We did catch some though (mostly Pike, Walleye, and a few Smallmouth Bass) and ate fresh fish almost every evening.

The green line on the maps represent a trip a few of us took one day in about 4-5 hours. We went up through some of the other lakes and looped back around to our campsite via a marshy stream. It was a nice little day trip and the scenery was absolutely breathtaking.

It was a great trip and my time away from technology was wonderful. It helped put things in perspective. As I mentioned before I’m going to be cutting down on my media intake and plan to reorganize things this week. More on that to come.
