| The weather was good and we had a good day’s paddling. Covered about the same distances in the morning and afternoon. Had lunch near the Wabasca River. After arriving at our campsite, we walked to the end of the rapids, about 1.5 to 2 miles. The walk along an old ‘road’ used to transport gear and boats was very buggy and we put on our bug jackets. We decided that we could do a combination of lining and paddling to get through the rapids and thus avoid the long (4 mi. triple-pass portage). We got back to camp about 8:00 and decided to use one of the lunches for dinner as we were too tired to cook. |
