Wally, great pics! Sounds like some adventure. Hard to get higher water at the right time?

Akula, enjoyed your trip report and pics too. I like some of your captions:
"The St. Louis River is a hiking trail, which is in a constant state of flooding." That's a good one.

Had to walk a few stretches but never anything too bad. We did abort a few trips before starting after getting a good look at the river.
