I thought what you wrote at the end of day three was very interesting. "This evening I ignore the photo ops in favor of checking in with myself. I see how a steady program of doing has kept me from being present. I briefly consider bailing out in the face of the challenge ahead, and then a loon calls, and for the first time in three days I really hear it. Something awakens inside, but it takes several more days to emerge." I've done 4 solos and on each it DOES take a few days to really slow down and see and hear what's around you. As for the Williamson Island campsite I would rate it slightly higher than you did. We put up three tents here in '06 and we all consider this to be a top site. The rock ledge out front is really great. We stopped this year for 2 nights as well and right in front are two perfectly spaced trees for my sleeping hammock. Thanks for putting this together. I also am very impressed with the photos and description of how you made the front thwart and also pics of your canoe storage. Nice work. ps. If you have trouble sleeping on the ground you should give a sleeping hammock a try. Here's what I bought this year. Warbonnet Blackbird This is my setup on Alice Lake. You would like these beach sites on the east side. |

Great trip report. I am always glad to read others adventures in some of the same places. A few years back I was able to check out Williamson Island and on another trip I stayed a night on that South Island on Disappointment. Glad to hear that you got back on the waters after an injury. |
