Well its about time to start this puppy up. I love the outdoors and can't get enough of everything mother nature has to offer. So to really kick this off, here is a post on the Boundary Waters, probably my favorite place to be on earth. I've been there pretty much every summer since I moved to Minnesota in 2000. You can find this awesome place up in northern Minnesota sitting on the Canadian border. It has much to offer, whether this is camping, canoeing, fishing or just listening to quiet. So here are some pics.

 

This shot is from Knife Lake, one of my favorites because of how clear the water is. The fishing is pretty good here as well. The shot below this is yet again Knife, with more daylight. This was taken at one of my favorite campsites looking at a small island. The water is about 15 feet deep at the midpoint.  

Of course, you can't travel here and not expect to see some wildlife. Below is a picture of a bear that walked into our camp 2 years ago, the famed Kekekabic Black Bear. Our Lake Trout just smelled too tasty I guess.

 

Then there are Moose, like this cow in the above right. We usually see these along the Gunflint, though I've encountered them at Rabbit and North Temperence Lakes as well. 

Anyway, I will post more eventually, as well as anything from upcoming trips. I'll probably put some older trips in here too and other stuff.
