night canoe and fish for breakfast on beaver lake

2 nights to spend on beaver lake? lets do it.  kris, mary, louie, nathan and i headed across the lake in the dark.  under this moon...

night paddle moon.

not much happened that night, but the next day the festivities really began. it was exciting to see how well everything got set up in the dark.

we gave the island a thoreau exploring (haha).  the water was really low so the island was bigger than it usually is.

one new feature was the "outhouse"  thanks graham and moe.  i hope this solves the poo pile mine field problem.

new shitter!!! thanks doods.

this canoe has been on this beach many many times

the crew

As usual, the lake provided us with glorious rainbow trout.  i got this fish cooking grill that we had to try.  everything worked awesome and the feed was delicious.

That evening there was some gear repair as kris then i worked on his sleeping bag.  we can always tell where he's camped before because of the feather trail.  well no more.

louie the fire master

The final morning we chilled around for a bit.  did some cleaning and packing and alas it was time to leave again.

Farewell island, maybe see you in the winter??

and thanks to mary for all the best pictures and for being a regular in TEAM AWESOME.  without my friends it would just be not as awesome.
