BWCA 2022 Day 10

Posted on January 30, 2023January 30, 2023 by mirth in Trip Reports

Tuesday, 9/27/2022. Day 10 My eyes blurry from a couple hours of sleep, the alarm goes off at 5:30AM. I want to get a time lapse of the sunrise, I think our campsite's Eastern shore would look especially pretty in the new day sun.

Posted on January 30, 2023January 30, 2023 by mirth in Trip Reports

Sunday, 9/25/22. Day 8 The weather radio's prediction for overnight came true, and it rained while we slept.

BWCA 2022 Day 6

Posted on January 30, 2023January 30, 2023 by mirth in Trip Reports

Friday, 9/23/2022. Day 6 It sprinkled overnight. There's a higher chance of rain later today and into Saturday. Saturday sounds like a clash of the seasons as thunderstorms are a featured headline. Today, it is overcast. After listening to the weather radio and getting some coffee and other food in us, we head into the … Continue reading BWCA 2022 Day 6 →
