Trip Introduction:
We drove up to Ely on Sunday June 2nd and got a Bunk at VNO. Very nice accommodations, Lynn was friendly as usual. We picked up our permit and PMA at the forest service, the ranger at the forest service was telling us that the sturgeon up by lower basswood falls were spawning and at times they will porpoise, up to 5 feet out of the water he said he had seen it once and it was really cool, but we never were able to witness this, but it would have been neat.

Wednesday, August 19, 2009 It's a beautiful morning.

We pack up camp and head home. Time to return the canoes and take some hot showers.

We get to stop in Duluth again for a while, this time intentionally, to eat at Angies and let the tire shop work on the car some more. The route home was a rough one, though strangely fitting as a severe thunderstorm fought against us the rest of the way back from our trip.
