RIP iPhone

My iPhone met an untimely demise while recording a river crossing during our walk on a nearby creek.

Winter BWCA - Crocodile Lake


I was not aware that the prospect of hang gliding would be popular enough to call out in the wilderness disclaimer message.

The portage wasn't long, but the first 30 rods were steep and tiring, especially since we'd just expended a bunch of energy following a trail to a shitter on an E. Bearskin campsite.  With all the snow, it looked like a portage!


The ice was slushy, so we set up camp on a point campsite.

I hauled in my ice fishing shelter, which provided nice relief the first day.  The tiny candle in the corner didn't emit much heat, but we were out of the wind.

It was too windy the second day for the shack, so we were back to building snow walls to cut down the wind.
