This was a BIG adventure over 4 days and since I'm just a dog, it's mostly photos and LOTS of them.
 |
| Sandy is picking up the cabin keys on Sunday afternoon. |
 |
| Now we're off! |
 |
| I got a new pack! |
 |
| They made me carry all my own food and supplies this time. |
 |
| This is trail mutt kind of terrain! |
 |
| A trail marker is being ate by this tree. |
 |
| They stopped for lunch. I didn't need none! |
 |
We ran into snow as soon as we gained some elevation.
I love snow! |
 |
| This is Lilly pond. |
 |
| This is our 1st cabin on Mirror lake. |
 |
| Boy is it nice! |
 |
I said "hi" to some friendly hikers going past.
They had the next cabin over. |
 |
| Who made a snowman?? |
 |
Someone carved a face in the cabin.
Its in German but I can't read anyway.. |
 |
I went for a dip. Sandy wasn't happy with the
good smell I found. |
 |
| Frozen rain came down. click, click, clink, clink, click, click. |
 |
| I love this place! |
 |
| I kept a chipmunk up in this tree. |
 |
| Now we head down to the BIG lake and another cabin. |
 |
| I'll show them just how easily a water dog crosses a river. |
 |
| What? That's the hard way to go! |
 |
| A little all-paw drive is needed here. |
 |
| We stopped to see the falls and snack. |
 |
| I had trail kibble. |
 |
| Oh this trail has some pretty spots! |
 |
| We finally made it down to my favorite Lake Superior!. The hikers at Mirror lake said this bridge had washed out this spring. |
 |
| I love this cabin! Its my favorite one! |
 |
| This is like the Ramada! |
 |
| But I'm more an outside dog where vermin is. |
 |
| Oh my lake, I'm a water dog ya know. |
 |
| Dusk that evening. It was chilly! |
 |
| An arrow made with white rocks to mark the trail. |
 |
| A frosty rock the next morning. |
 |
| I'll miss this place. |
 |
| Lets go! |
 |
| Now we head west along the shore. |
 |
| Bye-bye lake shore chippy! |
 |
The friendly rangers who service the cabins are heading back.
Bye-bye! |
 |
Along the way we bumped into more friendly hikers and
their trail mutt! |
 |
| Now we headed inland again. |
 |
| An old North County trail marker. |
 |
| OK,, again I'll show you the easy way across. |
 |
| Hope you fall in, the water was great! |
 |
| Was Big Foot here... or a dinosaur?? |
 |
| Sandy makes her way across this tree. |
 |
| Don't leave me! |
 |
| Tea time. |
 |
| I leapt up this rock with a tree on top. |
 |
| Snow again! |
 |
| Ya winter will be here soon. |
 |
| The job of hunting chipmunks, is never done. |
 |
| We made it to the Green stone cabin! |
 |
| Its very nice, I might have to make it my favorite! |
 |
| Campers left a toy for us. Hey, I bet kids were here! |
 |
| Good chipmunk hunting here. |
 |
| We went for an evening walk across the bridge. |
 |
The cabin was nice and all, but I prefer to stay out
during hunting hours. |
 |
| Now we head back to the lot we left the breadbox at. |
 |
Finally! My bags got emptied when we got back
to the parking lot. |
 |
Don't "Overlook" your chance to visit the Porkies soon!!
You could join us here for a post Thanksgiving weekend
for our camp-N-feast bash!
Details; we rented the Union River bunk 8 cabin which
is the largest in the Porkies on Saturday the 30th.
This is just a 1.5 mile hike in and we'll have a potluck dinner
there that day but we've not yet determined the time.
Let us know if you'd care to join us.
