Here are some pictures from a vacation we took to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area
Wilderness in Minnesota in August 2004. This was a five day canoe trip through Boundary
Waters. We started at Island River, went down to the Isabella River, paddled across Bald
Eagle Lake and Gabbro Lake, and then went down the Kawishiwi River. We went looking for
moose and wolves. Surprisingly, we did not see or even hear either. We did see a few bald
eagles and beavers, but that was about it. The best part, though, was that we did not see any
people at all for 3 of the 5 days we were out. In fact, the only people we saw the whole trip
were on Bald Eagle and Gabbro Lakes. That was really nice. This was a great trip, and I would
definitely like to go back and explore more of this huge wilderness. I also have a video clip of
an eagle flying across the river...pretty cool.
