	BUSHWHACKERS JAMBOREE 2015.... I'm having trouble posting a link or photo... ****intrepid_camper nailed it again...it is the Southern of the two lakes just north & between Allan & Bernice. Meeting on the Night of June 16, 2015. *** I'll get a map picture up soon, unless one of you helps me out with it first. Thank You more detail... WHO....Whoever can get a permit and get to the lake on the dates to be revealed later. No daytrippers (campers only)...we will gather in the evening. WHAT...It will be an informal meeting of tough and hardy travelers, where stories and information will be told. Knowledge, that has been earned, and should continued to be earned. WHERE...It will be on a lake near the middle of Quetico, with no name, no portage trail to it (none), good depth, good water, plenty of bugs and campable shorline, and maybe...just maybe good fishing. WHEN....It will be in mid-June 2015...when bugs are bad, and so are the voyageurs. WHY...Because the best information should be earned. Because exploring those no-name lakes makes for great adventure. Because I want to meet other bushwhackers and hear where they've been, and tell them where I've been, and exchange great stories. Because this time I REALLY want to shake the hand of anyone who gets there!!! How...Just get there

	I will have to look at my maps when I got back to the house. It sounds like it will be a great time.

	I am interested in doing this but I can't commit at the moment. The lake is so close to Hoare lake I will have to stop there on the way. Many years ago I bushwhacked into Roulston and discovered the best hammer handle northern fishing anywhere. I still get kidded about it. Last year Lemay was a disappointment and not much of a bushwhack either. I am debating putting off Zephira another year and going to the Jamboree. I do think the lake deserves a name though, after all the build up it seems deserving of an epitaph of some sort. Jon

	Is anyone else thinking of putting the BWJ on their calendar? We could have another Flamingo Rendezvous near one of the likely sites for the portage attempt into the SSL (Stumpy's Secret Lake). Does anyone think it will be possible to access SSL via the creek that runs southeast from Sturgeon (eventually) to the SSL?

	IC - If you're planning on taking THAT route in, I suggest you get started now. Looks like better winter than summer tripping there. Hmmm... I suppose there could be enough water still around in June to float a canoe. Better hope for a LOT more snow. My younger son really wants to do this BWJ but the wife may have other plans that we can't work around. I'll know in a few weeks whether or not the pink flock can be expected to make a showing. They're restless; it's been 10 years since their last migration. My older son & I really had a blast that first time around! Will have to practice my bushwhacker balladeering and remember to pack ties for formal dining on No Name Lake if we actually do this thing. Thinking about it.... Jimbo
