ViDEO: Slogging on Manitou in Finland, Minnesota PART 1
March 9 thru 11th I got to head up to George Crosby Manitou State Park up in Northern Minnesota for a couple of nights out in my hammock and under my tarp being serenaded by wolves and owls and a rushing river. Whoooooo
It is a backpack only park and the Superior Hiking Trail runs through it.
One of my very favorite spots all year round.
Fun to be out goofing with my gear and eating and sweating and laughing!
I thank you for peering at my video.
All secure in sector seven,

I think I like the world according to Shug.
Crosby-Manitou sure looks different in the winter.
Thanks!
