August 7, 200619 yr Just returned from BWCA. Had a great trip, this was the best working crew I have ever gone with. The boys worked really hard and portaged like men possessed. The weather was very good for up there. A little cool in the mornings and some rain off and on, but very pleasant. It was odd to see float planes flying over. We were told they were hauling supplies to the fire crews, hence the lifting of the no-fly zone. Scouting is an educational movement and I learned at least one new thing. I may be getting a little old to do the High Adventure thing.

I met a SM near Louisa Falls a few years ago that was in his 60s and had been taking crews there every year for over 20 years. My new hero, for sure!! After you get a good shower and a few good meals under your belt, I'll see you out on the trail next summer! -mike
