PK,

How did you manage to hold BOTH your sawed-off shotgun AND your camera while setting your red squirrel trap in today's POD?

Jimbo   Cool

Well, I guess the easiest answer is that you strap the camera to the barrel.  Grin Roll Eyes

As usual, you guys crack me up.   Cheesy Cheesy

This photo was taken on that island campsite in Snow Bay on July 14, 2008.  One of the teens neglected to fully tighten the cap of the Jif jar.  I was astounded watching this little rodent actually unscrew the cap, take a lick of the peanut butter, push it off the countertop and then start dragging the jar to its lair in the nearby bushes.  The little bastard!!

Anyway, we wrestled the jar away from him and went about our daily business.  When we eventually loaded up to move to Upper Pauness, we noticed the Jif jar was MIA....seems the little guy snuck it out of camp at some point.  Never did find it.

I consider this episode the first salvo in a continuing 13-year-old war with these clever, vicious, and sick criminal enemies!!   Grin Grin

I've heard there is a small message jar there on that campsite...small notes with very strange hand (paw?) writing....

Most of it is hate mail and something about newly-designated "latrines" they have set up at someone's red pine firewood stashes throughout the park.

I am not exactly sure.  The photo was taken in July 2008.  My best guess is it was either getting to north Burntside via Rouge, or perhaps leaving Burntside thru the southeastern bay of Jean.  Hope it's one of these lakes or my photos got all mixed up in my files....  Huh

Anyone recall seeing this erratic and where it actually is?

I'd say the island in the north end facing the portage to Jean. There is usually a Gull sitting on it though so I can't be absolutely positive. Wink

Yup.  That's it, db.  And matches my dates as my photo was taken on July 3 when we departed Burntside heading to Jean.  I think that erratic is on the northeast corner of the island.  The earlier photo of the campsite was located on the southwest side of the island....

Now you're messing with me, db....isn't your photo Campsite FA, on the larger of the islands on the north end of Burntside?   Huh
