I was pondering what to do in June, as Jimbo's Pickerel trip was too late in the month for me and too close to my late July trip  - not retired yet, or close - for work purposes.  Thanks to Pine Knot's suggestion, I was looking seriously at the Bushwhacker Jamboree, meeting up with him and Magic Paddler.  With a generous offer from MP to use his spare solo, I'm going to join up with him just after the Jambo and explore the Devine Creek and Lake area circa June 13-24.  It'll be my first drive up the Gunflint. 

Last week of July-first week of August will find me headed out of PP to do some kind of loop that involves Kett, Tuck, McIntyre, Ted, Argo, Brent and back to PP.  So far, just one friend and myself on that deal.  No permit yet, but looking at July 27-Aug. 6 or 7.  Also looking for any helpful info on Ted Lake.

Paddle on, be free!
