I am planning on taking a trip to Quetico May 2006, this will be my first attempt at a solo type trip.  I say solo 'type' because I am intreested in meeting up with others if our paths cross.  The people that post here seem to share my love for the outdoors and a thirst to learn and improve our wilderness skills.
So if anyone is interested in meeting up for a few days let me know.  Here is my current plan, I would be flexible in destinations but not entry exit dates, or entry point.

I plan on going in through Prarie Portage on Thursday May 18th and out May 27th.  I am going in Thursday to avoid some of the paperwork that is required to go in while the park ranger station is open.  I heard it was easier.  
I am planning go up to Agnes and spending a few days chasing Lake Trout.  Then on to Kawnipi for some Walleye.  That is as far as I have gotten.  I will be using a rented Prism and I like to pack along some comforts so I will be heavy for a solo.  I plan on eating fish 5-9 times, to reduce the food I bring.  I am pretty confident that I can catch enough fish for myself.  I have been through here about 10 years ago.  
Please read my profile and if anyone is interested in getting together for a short time let me know.

Beavers, you were just lucky that you were all ax-wielding maniacs

fishinbuddy, wish you the best.....it's more fun fishin with a buddy.

So far, I have had one person interested and it seems like it may work, (names will kept privae to protect the guilty).
Maybe it is just too far out for others to plan.  I am however am a planner by nature, maybe that is why I am in the project management field.  I have a gear list ready, menu to propose and I have the maps I will need.  My wife is now expressing concerns.
Any suggestions to calm her fears.  I hunt alone frequently but this seems to be different.  I keep telling her I will be safe and carefult but... ( I have learned after 15 years not to say 'I am worth more dead than alive .)
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

When I married my wife I married well. 
Our honeymoon was trout fishing/camping in North East Iowa.  She has been to BW before.  I have taken her hunting, fishing and camping.  She knows I have good skills, that is not the issue. 
Accidents do happen and she is worried that if I get hurt no one would be there to help.  I am thinking about a SAT phone to help the cause.
I also have a feeling she may be jealous.  I took two trips this year, then there is this one next year and she has not been able to go.  Maybe if I can commit to a trip with her...3 trips next year...that extra vacation will come in handy.

fishinbuddy, I have been on two solos so far and both times the wife said "You're not going". The reasoning I provided for both and future trips is "A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do". Period. Life happens...

I also went one time with (3) guys I met on a bwca site that were looking for a 4th guy and it worked out great. Most BWCA guys just want to go up in even numbers and every one just wants to enjoy their vacations. On this trip they provided a bona fide fisherman so we all ate well.

The one thing I realized about solo trips that's kinda weird is that you can have fun but not really laugh out loud fun since you are the only one telling jokes (in your own head - mostly)    I still prefer it though.

When I retire someday or win the lotto I plan to recruit a few strangers to paddle the length of the BWCA/Q and I'm sure I'll meet some great people.

Good luck on your trip.
