Beautiful, isn't it? Our world is picture perfect these days - great photo opportunities wherever I look. This photo was taken where Rockwood Road meets the Gunflint Trail... leading down to the lake and the cabins, lodge and outfitting center. There isn't a lot of traffic except for Mike's snowmobile and he hasn't had it out since our foot or so of new snow last weekend. It's been a little too cold for comfortable ice fishing this week, though we hear the trout are biting on a couple nearby lakes.
Our main activity this week has been helping our friends and guests plan their 2010 vacations. The BWCA permit lottery is over, which means that you can now check http://www.recreation.gov/ for the date and entry point you want - and confirm your permit then and there - or give us a call and we'll help you pick the entry point that works for your group and get the permit for you! We've also been busy putting together some "cabin and canoe" and "cabin and hike" packages for guests who'd rather come home every night to a stove, refrigerator and cozy bed. Mike and I are pretty much settled here for the winter and we love having someone (else) to talk to about spring plans!
