Bearskin October 8th, 2004

Here is another classic and funny moment from 2004. Dave, Dan and I were in Grand Marais at the Gunflint Tavern for the evening. Afterwards when we got back to the cabin, we dug into our growlers and well, the effects are shown here. We sure do like growlers but at this point it is around 3am. I am in bed trying to sleep. Dave had other ideas. Dave and Dan get a case of the giggles and this is classic.

Oct 9th and 10th, 2004

Dan and I went mountain biking at Lutsen. This is where I lost my camera while on the ski lift. I lost around 300 pictures or so. Lesson learned. After Dan left I was on my own for a few more days so I explored more of the Grand Marais area.

Back at Bearskin Oct. 2004

Dan C. was waiting for us as we got back to Grand Marais from Isle Royale. It was Dan's first time up at Bearskin. As you may know I am a big Halloween fan and back in these days I would bring up the scary music along with the fog machine and lights to have a little fun at night. Nothing like some Halloween fun in October up in the deep woods of Bearskin. Dan C. is doing the commentary here with the video camera.

As I look back at this video, this was the last visit I was at Bearskin. It has been 5 years since I have been back. I am really looking forward to going back this fall.

Back to Grand Portage and Gunflint Trail 2004

Here we head back to Grand Portage from Isle Royale on calm waters. After this we head back to the cabin on the Gunflint Trail.

Malone Bay Oct. 2004

Here we stop at Malone Bay to drop off a Dad and his 3 kids as they plan to fish on Siskiwit Lake from their canoe. So the question I had at the time is, it is October and should the kids be in school? Of course I would rather be on Isle Royale than in school too.
