So, we probably did about 10 miles a day. |

03/29/2012 05:27AM Great blog. Isn't that place something? Some of the portages are so little used you need a compass. We used to go in September through a local outfitter out of Red Lake. He was trying to drum up autumn business and charged us so little I used to wonder how he made any money. One year he told us there'd only been 900 people through - the entire season! |

03/21/2012 11:09AM Kip got the good tent pads. Jan got the bad tent pads. If he didn't like it, TOUGH! :) Nah, we all just kinda picked our spots at random and never fought over one. |

03/18/2012 05:55AM One more question. How did you go about selecting tent pads? Was it a rotating selection of who got to pick first? The biggest group I was ever with only had two canoes and 4 people. Four tents on a site seems problematic but I don't really know so I guess that's why I'm asking. I think a 4 group solo would be both very fun but yet challenging at the same time. Comparing each other's gear and food would be fun. |

03/17/2012 06:08PM Everyone brought their own food, gear, stoves, tents, etc. About all we shared was the large tarp and fire grate. |

03/17/2012 01:42PM Very nice trip. Was wondering what items you shared as a group? Looks like one tarp was used but what about stoves? Did everyone bring their own food? I take it no one shared tents. |

03/04/2012 10:51AM Fantastic trip report! We've been talking about Woodland Caribou since last fall & not sure we can make it happen this summer, but man, all those great pictures make me want to get up there even more. Thanks! |

03/04/2012 08:16AM Yes, the same campsite Nctry! How close to the camp was that cave? We did not see that. |
| nctry |
03/03/2012 11:38PM Did the same trip pretty much in 2010. Stayed at the same campsite I think on Aegean. Recognize the big rocks... You were very close to the cave.
