ST,

From left to right: Jimbo, Wally 13, & Portage Dog.

It was likely TomT's pic that I am getting credit for.  I believe we were resting after one of those bad-ass nasty little portages that characterized the "alternative routes" that we so often elected.  He & Luna were the ones who most often committed the same mistakes we did, so I'll officially credit them for today's pic.  I could be wrong to give him credit but our other party members, MagicPaddler & PineKnot, more often preferred the mountain goat portage alternatives that we thought we were being smart to avoid.

Oh, and it's probably TomT's pic, not Luna's.  She was more inclined go for mouthwatering big fish shots....

Jimbo   Cool

Yes indeed....members of the board.

@ goblu79...did you find the baseball bucket cache when you climbed Gardner Mtn? If you found it, you'll know what that means.  I didn't put it there, but found it last September in conjunction with the trip pics Jimbo's been submitting.  I think it was place there just earlier last summer.

Jimbo, I believe today's POD was eating lunch after the first portage out of Kett.  There's a no name there to cross before we hit the long one to Basswood.  I left last in camp as usual but caught up with you guys at the short portages out of Robinson.  BTW, take notice of the finely crafted bench Mike and Stew are sitting on.  That baby was not light.  Solid cedar carried out of the park by Stew.  I never did find out if anything became of that wood.

That day we did 4-5 shortish portages out of Robinson in Quetico to get to Kett Lake then we did a fairly long one and took our lunch break pictured here. After padding across a small unnamed we tackled about a 280 rod portage that is very scenic.  But it wears on you and we had a lot of gear.  The thing I remember most about that last one before hitting Basswood Lake is hearing Jimbo long before I saw him.  We would be going opposite ways on that portage through the trees and Jimbo was singing! 

Now, I distract myself from the shoulder pain by watching Luna out in front of me.  Apparently Jimbo uses singing.  Smiley I don't remember the song though.... I think it was Billie Jean in the Michael Jackson voice.
