We paddle out of Base on Moose Lake around 9:00 am. We go through Birch Lake and several others. Up here you paddle a while, unload, and portage to the next lake. We have lunch on the US - Canada border.We see Eagles flying around and nesting in trees.
Arrive at Robbins Island on Knife Lake around 3:00 pm. We set up camp and fix steak and rice for supper. Our Interpreter, Mike is a wonderful baker and fixes us apple pie for dessert.
It has been an awesome first day. Great 46th birthday too!
Drinking water is readily available up here. Just dip your bottle and add iodine.
How long is this portage?
You can't get there from here. Can you?
Our guys can cook and did a good job. The food at NT is tasty.
