Hiking along the Cascade River loop

SHT: Cascade River State Park to Judge Magney State Park

We clocked in our longest section hike on the SHT yet - 40 miles in the backcountry exploring one of our favorite places ever!

BWCAW 2020

We went back out to the boundary waters for the second year in a row, this time in the Ely area and with Al and Lindsey along for the adventure! It was a great time with great friends, and we can’t wait to go back again next year.
