    As always, your stories mirror the best of being in the woods. Thanks much for sharing them.

    I'm not familiar with the geography in Finland, MN but the river below your campsite looked familiar. Have you posted trip from that river before, maybe a summer trip? Bet the sound of the river that night could put you to sleep.

    I return to that spot over and over.
    Love the cedary woods there and the quiet. About 4 hours from home and the whole topography changes up there.

    Good one! Makes me yearn for the piney woods. One knee down, one to go and then maybe I can get back into the woods again!
    YMMV

    HYOH

    Free advice worth what you paid for it. ;-)

    Thanks for the video, Shug. They're supposed to get anywhere from 5-10 inches of fresh wet snow up that way later this week. Winter isn't through with us up here quite yet.
    If your lucky enough to be outdoors, your lucky enough!

    Another good'un. Yep, we're supposed to see 80* down here in the Tennessee Valley today. Spring comes in at 12:23am on Sunday morning. But it is nice to see you all out there enjoying some of the white stuff. Thankee.

    Spring may have just had a toe in the door up here. Sometimes snow at Easter.
