Here's where the going starts getting rough for Magic Paddler.  See:   (You need to Login or Register

He's established his exploratory base on Louisa.

Fortunately, he's giving himself extra time to eyeball & reconsider his approach to Stumpy Lake.  Maybe he'll make a couple of experimental forays into the bush without equipment, etc., looking for a soft spot.  From this side he will have cliffs to scale & a fair amount of ground to cover.  It doesn't appear heat will be all that much of a factor this week but fresh drinking water will still be important, given the exertion factor.

It'll be interesting going over the next couple days....
