It rained over night and half of the floor in our tent was wet. Sue’s book got really wet (more on her book later).
The morning was cold and windy with indications that rain was coming. The original plan was to make this a long journey and probably camp for two days, however, after facing the win at Lake Winchell everyone was tired. It is really something to be in a canoe paddling against the win. The waves were around 1 to 1-1/2 ft and I have to admit my arms, specially my right shoulder was in pain.
When we arrive at the portage to go into lake Ogema we discussed our strategy and made a decision to stay in this lake.
