MEA weekend in the wild
Cousin Dan and his stalwart sons, M. and N., spent this past weekend at Clearwater Lake, about a third of the way up the Gunflint Trail in northeastern Minnesota. Dan reports that it was windy and rainy and water was shooting out of waterfalls and pouring over Hwy. 61.
In the top photo, N., splendid in flapping plaid, was buffeted like a bird by howling wind and driven rain on the beach in Grand Marais. In the second photo, Marty, a fine athlete and outdoorsman, stood on a palisade in the BWCA; you can see Canada behind him. At right, the spent hikers soaked in a hot tub heated by a wood fire. They all came home smelling like smoke -- and happy and refreshed, Dan reports.
