We use 50 cal. ammo cans for ours, water tight rodent proof. But we set our own, because it can be a challenge to find them.

You might want to contact them again to get clarification for...
I've drank my share of Rhinelander beer. Born and raised in Barron County.
Enjoy your HH, you've found a good place here.

Make sure you wear your orange, that's the second weekend of deer hunting.
That area gets hit hard by small game hunters, plus it is peak rut for whitetails so there will be more Archery hunters out too. So there will be quite a bit of traffic in the woods this weekend....
Murphy dam is the only campground in that area. The rest would have to be dispersed camping. On the north end of that section your between Mikana and Birchwood. There are some services there, and a...
Are you looking at the section from Birchwood to Weyerhaeuser? I grew up in that area, but have never hiked that trail. I still have family in that area. There is not much for shuttle service, but I...
McKenzie maps has a set of them, too much info for one map.

Welcome from a little east of you.
Sold and paid. Mods please close.
Not looking for trades but thanks for the bump.
I am selling my Ohm 2.0 in Purple Blaze, Medium frame, Large hip belt. I have had it for two years and used on a couple SHT hikes. Excellent condition no rips, tears or stains that I can find. I did...
The Kek, Snowbank, Sioux Hustler are all good trails. But you need to keep in mind that these trails are fully or partly in the Boundary Waters Wilderness, hence the maintenance has to be done...
The Superior National Forest Headquarters is in Duluth, stop in there and get a map. It is a large waterproof one, cost about $10. It will give you a good idea where to start, once in the NF area a...
I've been told I have a lot of loose screws over the years. But if your not doing what you love to do, there is not much joy in living that way. The more I get told I can't do something or I'm crazy...
Whoo Hoo I Love it!!!!!!!!!!!
Is it the one with macaw trim and is on the way to Minnesota?
The book will give you a good idea of water and major places on the trail. Watch the video's from Shug, Ryan Viney, Pizza and Darinbjerknes they show the campsites and which ones are hammock...
I'll have to wear mine to the Minnesota State Fair!!!
$2.25 gas, so I can afford to get out more!!!!
Looks like you had a great time. Is that MadHob? I think I recognize the combination shirt!
Welcome. Are you a Snow, Blue or Canada?
You could go North!
The north shore of Lake Superior, Duluth has numerous craft breweries up the road Two Harbors has one and further up Grand Marais has two. Connecting them is the Superior Hiking...
My beard has lost it's smoke smell, time to go back!
That was great! It was a great weekend, glad you documented it so we can share it with those who just don't understand why we go out in the middle of winter.
The smell of woodsmoke is a badge of honor, I can walk into the equipment room and get reminded of many adventures from the smokey smells.
The cotton socks and more than likely the long johns had a cotton content too. These will hold moisture big time and cause you to get cold. Find some polyester long underwear and liner socks. That's...
That's really cool. I go deer hunting every year two miles up the road from White Wilderness. I hear the dogs fire up every morning when they go out to feed them. Some really nice country around...
It could be many factors of your set up, not that its a bad set up but more info is needed. How is your under quilt suspended, is there any air space between the quilt and hammock? What were you...
Can't wait to see what other things got caught on camera.
Congratulations.
Did Tala make a Best Man's speech?
Are the roasted cashews coming along too?
I think we will be OK on sit pads:) Looks like about 2 for everyone on the list.

For those of you attending the hang please update the Spreadsheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1e4afrlzlARTbwlZ0FjcRO8sJClbR6-0DqE3A3xH6kms/edit?pli=1#gid=0
That way those of us there...
I have some chaga that I have ground already, should get us for a couple days.
Vince are you back in MN now?
I updated the days I will be there, but could not add anything in comments section. I have the fire grate from last year, and hope to get a reflector oven set up for it done this week. I also have a...
Shug has a full series of video's that will cover all of your questions.

I will be there along with Vince,last I heard Radiohead and Hoot and Vampiresmiley are planning on Wed too. I was planning on bringing some Beef stew and biscuits for Wed night. With any luck and...
I used Shugs pattern too but at the ridgeline end I sewed a channel that I could put a dowel thru to hold it open. Just gives it more surface area, rather than gathered up at the top.
1 1/2" PVC sections cut lengthwise will work too.
We were in Duluth this weekend and there was only about 4" there. This is where I keep track of the snow cover up there, looks like about 6" now....
I plan on putting these up one on the snowmobile trail and one on the road so hopefully nobody will miss the turn into the trail where the camp is. The snowflake is reflective, had to make it look...
Last year we went thru 10 to 12 gallons per day, melting that much snow would be a pain figure a ratio of 15:1+ with dry snow. Plus the water we bring in does not have to be boiled, just heated and...
I went by the site first week of November, the creek was very low. We should just plan on everyone bringing at least two gallons of clean water with them. I have a stainless turkey pot I'll bring to...
Sent you a PM with directions
That's the same days I got vacation for. Just waiting to see if I will be able to head up late in the 13th.
I dropped him a message on BCUSA
Looks like you had a great weekend. Like Shug said it looks like you were close to last years set up, kind of hard to tell without the 3' of snow we had last year.
Welcome to the forum.
I would leave it at home. They like to be temperamental in extreme cold, and operating one knee deep in snow is just waiting for an accident.
And using a bow saw gets the body heat up!
