These other berries were pretty dry. No matter how long they soaked, they still tasted like pooh!

The weather wasn't very good. We got rained on a couple of times, but that wasn't really the problem. The wind blew like an S.O.B. and we were shore bound on three out of four fishing days. Fortunately, our travel days weren't too bad. The mosquitos were kept pretty much at bay when the wind blew hard, but were brutal some other times. Especially at the beginning and ending of the portages and right around sunset. Thermacells and bug juice with lots of deet controlled the little bastards pretty well.

We strung some tarps as wind breaks and hunkered down behind them.

We got some of this, but the wind was much more of a problem than the rain.

ThermaCell-- Never leave home without it!!  :nofgr:

Well that certainly didn't do anything for my mentality right now :sad:. I want to go so bad I can taste it :pout:. 
Great pics and I enjoyed the whole trip you showed with you :yoyo:. 

WOW, those are some great shots.  Now, as for those berries that didn't taste good. . . . . . .

Semp,

Quetico Provincial Park. Its a million plus acres of wilderness in Canada, just across the border from Minnesota.
