WE went there a few years ago.... way nice and worth going to. WE stayed at a nearby County Park ....boy the ticks were out big time.... little kids and pets must have been covered with them. We made a long weekend of it and paddled part of the Nemakogan (sp?) river....had the river to ourselves.

What county park?

Anyone going to this? I may.

Bannock: Spooner WI is located in Washburn County. You can do a Google search to get a list of county campsites. The 27th is the Memorial Day weekend, so reservations would be best.

We checked it out after a trip on the Namekagon and it was very nice.

A reminder that this event is coming up Saturday May 27th. There is going to be some stunning canoes on display, including a few brand new builds.

Interesting, thanks for the information.
