Chequamegon Day 2 - Day 333

  Bill and me... walking along. The weather continues to hold, so I am continuing to hike without a day off. So far so good, although today was tougher than anything recently. Joyce hiked part of the day with us again.

Bill's fancy electronic watch said we did a total elevation gain of 2600 feet. It was just all rolling hills. Only one climb seemed significant. But they add up.

The Drummond Woods area is a section of virgin timber that was not cut in the late 1800s. Here are 2 white pine. Maybe they don't look so big, but that's because I got back far enough to show the whole tree.

The biggest lake we passed today is Lake Owen. It's very convoluted, and the trail follows the shore a long way. However, there aren't too many places to get a clear picture like this without a lot of trees.

Our current hosts have an annual bonfire to which they invite trail friends and neighbors. Tonight was the night. Lots of good food and fun.

Miles today: 15.0. Total miles so far: 3884.2.
