Hello All... I have news... All of the Jimboreer's, made it safely to Bottle Portage via the tow to start their journey!  On the other hand I was not able to continue with them because of a stress fracture I received in my right foot on the way into the BWCA last Sunday the 25th...  Lake Agnes was as far as I made it (Campsite 1804/29) and that was all!!  I did manage to get up to Bottle Portage Thursday morning to let them know I was not going to be able to go with them and then I went back to Agnes, broke camp, made it back to the truck, a shower at VNorth, a bite to eat and then an 1100 mile drive back to Arkansas to see a doctor...   Bruce

Bruce-

Sorry about your stress fracture and having to cut your trip short.    Here's wishing you a speedy and complete recovery.  Maybe your luck will be better for Jimboree #3.
