"Tuscaroraborealis... We were at that site the first week of June 2009, we put the feather in the skull and my buddy carved the stick in the ground next to it. I was going to enter one of my pictures from that site until I noticed yours.

I believe this was on Kawishiwi Lake. The actual site was nothing great but it had a really nice sand beach in the front of it.

I failed to notice the "Camp" theme when I posted this although it is the view from our camp.

This is one of my favorite campsites. It is on Cherokee Lake in a grove of cedar trees. The forest floor is cedar duff and the entire camp is so aromatic!

This is one of the best campsites I have had the pleasure of staying at in the BWCA.
It is on Frost Lake near the inbound portage.
Lots of space, soft pine needles on the ground,neat fire pit, shade, and beautiful Cedar Groves.

We musta been been the very nextcampers there? I read somewhere on here that the skull was initially at the site just to the east of this one. Someone musta hiked it over to this one?

Jordan Lake. Late August 2007. The only trip, so far, with just my son and me. Brutally dry, fire ban, low water, leaves turning early - but this was home for a few days and we had a great time. I really should take more pics on my trips just for the memories.
