Title: Preaching to the Choir! and a Question.
Post by Millhouse on Sep 16th, 2012 at 5:23pm
My first trip into Quetico exceeded all my expectations.  It is probably the beginning of an enduring ritual.  I can't wait to come back and plan to return the same time next year with my wife or other fishing buddy. 
My route was Nym-Batch-Pickerel-Maria-Jesse-Walter-Lonely-Draper and back (skipping Lonely on the return route).
The fishing was fantastic and diverse in the different lakes.
When I left the park driving toward the outfitter I found I was driving at 30 km/h (19 mi/h).  It took a few minutes to adjust to the speed of life on the "outside"!
I was back working in my ambulance the following day at 11am.  Quite the turn around but I the experience has left me revitalized and fresh despite the physical exertion of a solo trip.
Question:  On the portage into Draper L, There was a downed tree across the path 3/4 of the way in that i was able to carry under at my lowest "duck walk" position, i think anyone taller would have a hard time and would have to drag their canoe.  Should this be reported to anyone?  Park staff?
