I've crossed many other streams and rivers over the last couple days too. You'd never get anywhere because Verne & Kermit would be constantly nagging at you to stop for some rafting.
I do kind of worry about the mosquitoes. I know they carry diseases and I've heard they kill more people than any other animal on earth.
It really was a nice campsite. I agree that view-blockers are nice on a hot day, but it got pretty chilly here in the late afternoon, so I cursed them as being sun-blockers.
5 months agoThank you, but all I have to do is aim my phone. Lake Superior does the rest.
5 months agoI was going to say Boof, but I was afraid maybe that nickname had run its course. Boof it is from now on.
5 months agoYou can find a wide variety of rock types along Lake Superior's shores, thanks to the glaciers that scooped it out. They carried granites, basalts, and all kinds of other materials from the Canadian Shield and dropped them here for you to enjoy.
5 months agoI visited PMWSP last year (by car) as I was on my way west to YOUR State. I wanted to see what real, genuine, honest-to-Pete old growth forest looks like, and that's one of the few places in the country where it's possible. You've chosen a great place to visit-- but you don't need *me* to tell you that, do you?
5 months agoOh dear, my guys are sooooo wishing they were with you right now as all those floating opportunities are making them really envious of you. They don't mind the cold water if they are floating on top.
And I shall keep my fingers crossed for you that you come away from the tour without tick-borne or mozzie-borne illness!
Happy almost solstice. Our sunset tonight was at 5.04pm. We do not lose anymore evening minutes before the solstice on Friday, just a few morning minutes. I can't imagine sunset at 10pm!
5 months agoOh my goodness... all these super green photos! Having not lived east of the Mississippi since 1994, I always forget how green it can be in early summer!
5 months agoWhat a lovely spot - I love it when the view-blockers provide some shade, too.
5 months agoOn my tablet, that deer looks like a sticker or like it's been photoshopped in the way it stands out from the pavement. I love the deer's tiny shadow - mid-day near the longest day of the year!
5 months agoLOL... cursed view blocker... maybe it was karma for always bad-mouthing those other view-blockers!
5 months agoSo glad the tour got off to a great start with pasties from TWO different shops!
5 months agoAwesome shot, Greg.
