Thanks for the report! 23 trips together is quite an accomplishment. I've done quite a few with my father, but I don't think I'm up to that number yet. It is great that you both still get to enjoy the BWCA together. The stats at the end were also amazing - 47 portages just sounds like a lot.

Thanks! Our first trip happened when he was 12, now 32. We missed a few years but doubled up on others. We are trying to get some of the difficult trips in before I get too old and out of shape.

What a coincidence - I also went on my first trip with my dad when I was 12, and now I'm 32.

Yes, this was a hard route. If you want to go out of Sawbill I would suggest going north to Cherokee Lake, then south through the Temperance Lakes and Temperance river. Then back to Sawbill by Burnt and Smoke Lakes

Thanks for the suggestions. One of the boys is only 10 -- looked like too many portagaes form them but just wanted to confirm. Thanks again
