Algonquin trip booked!!

Kind of throwing this trip together at the last minute, but my first trip of the year is booked for next week and the destination is....

Rock lake!

Yes the now infamous Rock lake where you may remember, I experienced a tornado touching down not far from my site while on my first ever solo trip. Well this time I am bringing company in the form of my daughter Lauren.

We are going for 3 days from June 30 - July 2nd. The route map is attached, but we plan to spend our first night on Pen lake. I am hoping to land one of the beach like sites on the eastern shore that also has a great view of the sunset. For our second night we will be traveling to Galaeiry Lake and since I have never been here before we plan to check out one of the two island sites, as Lauren has never stayed on one and I think it would be cool for my princess to have her own island for a day!

We will both be bringing fishing rods and I hope to snap my 5 trip fish less draught....but since I am NO fisherman, I think I have a better chance of having a good conversation with Lauren. No need for nervous fish while I am around.

I will try....I repeat try to update before we leave.

On the knupack update: I have sent 5 emails and not had one response. Not sure what kind of business he is running but his customer service is not winning him and friends here. I will update should I have any news to report.

Enjoy! If you're up early enough and trawling the shorelines you may have some luck.

I am going into Galeairy and Penn next week. I was wondering how your trip with your daughter went? Were there very many motor boats on Galairy? Did the island campsite work out for your Princess?

Thanks

I look forward to hearing about your trip.

How was your solo trip, other than the tornado? Have you gone solo since? I'm going up there in a couple of weeks with a friend but I'm thinking about going solo in the spring (since I only have 1 friend who likes to go there and can only do it once a year).

I know I'd have no problem being alone, as I don't get lonely easily, but I've never canoed let alone portaged solo before. Not to mention the nights could get a bit spooky.
