08/10/2008 01:43PM Thank you everyone for entering and sharing your photos! It was another great month of photos and a tough decision again for the moderators. The winner of the July photo contest is Snakecharmer: Snakecharmer's Photo. The July trip report contest goes to Kiporby. Congratulations to the winners! The extra hat goes to Traveler. |

Fog and Pine at Sunrise on Clear Lake in late June 2008. The "dots" on the photo are mayfly spinners from a HUGE hatch the evening before.

08/02/2008 01:33PM kanoes and silentbeard: Kanoes is correct. Silentbeard's picture is not of a pine. Silentbeard's Genus Cedrus is indeed in the Family Pinaceae but, unfortunately, the two species in the genus, the cedar of Lebanon, and deodar cedar, do not occur in the wild in North America. The white cedar occurring in the BW belongs to the genus Thuja, a member of the cypress family, Cupressaceae. With the above having been said, I must add that I am generally in favor of granting poetic license. Kanoes: If you so wish, you may redirect your bow to a generally westward direction. |

07/30/2008 09:32AM Kanoes/moose plums - thanks for the comments! I have to say that you all have helped to create a monster :D. We just got back from our first trip to the BWCA a couple weeks ago, and all of the advice and wisdom on this board was INVALUABLE! It's great to now be able to share a bit of my own perspective from this stunning place. Red Beard - awesome reds in your sunset shot! You're living up to your name... |

07/24/2008 09:51PM La Croix Island Pine 2008  this pine is on a island on LLC that i must have paddled by a dozen times. this year with no timetable for returning i explored the smaller bays and islands. unlike the wonderful stands of Red Pine and the huge Whites i thought this tree stood out as a example of old weather blasted ones that have hung on over the years. |

07/16/2008 08:36PM Sunrise, Island River, September 24, 1999 This was the final morning of my first solo. Frost covered the low lands and fog hung along the water. The sun seemed to blast it's way into the new day, and it was (almost) a spiritual experience.
