Hey, thanks! I didn't know this area was here and I just stumbled across these messages.
My first trip up was in 1978. I came 5 years in a row, then went to school, got a job, a wife, three kids, started a couple of businesses, and yadda, yadda, yadda, I didn't get back until 2008. I just completed another trip this year with my youngest. I hope to be back several more times before I shuffle off this mortal coile!

Hey, Corndog! Thanks, Everything went right on that trip! I've camped in a lot of places over the years, but never had such perfect weather. I am not much of a fisherman. Only once before have I been on a trip where we ate so much fish (and the guy who caught those became a pro bass fisher). As you have seen, this year, we had a very hot trip. The heat, which was in the high 80's all day and the 60's or 70's at night, really sapped our energy. I'm thinking of trying a week in WCPP to show the boys what BWCA used to look like when I first heard about it. Now, if only this crikety left knee will hold up... jc

Ali Baba reference maybe? (yeah, I'm old.)

I reached a moment of zen while reading your report.

Even the trip report was "easy does it". Nice relaxed style. Easy to read, and easy to get caught "going with the flow".
It was a good to read on a Friday night when the most exciting thing that happened so far was a few beers and talking canoes with my tripping buddies.
Thanks for the post.
