    Old trip, never posted. Dredging up what we can while the camping ban is in effect here. Not a thrilling outing but when you're forced to stay home, it seems like a dream trip.

    I just did a fly in to lake Kabinakigami ( pine portage lodge ) , out of Wawa .
    I’m edging closer to attempting to do what you’re doing.
    I discovered my google maps worked out there which has given me more confidence. Maybe a false confidence. But it worked well .
    I took the boat to the north east corner of the lake , got out of the boat and hiked the river with my pole . Incredible walleye fishing.
    If I was allowed to do that, you must be in the back country by now .

    Up a creek! With two people and two paddles. Much better than a barbed wire canoe and no paddles!!!

    Don't know why but I'm kinda stunned by the sight of a butterfly doing a pee at 4:45
