   Fabulous show!

   My first BWCA trip was up the Nina Moose River. At that time there were a number of beaver dams we had to traverse. It was kind of fun.

   There is a spot along the river where you can go ashore and climb to a excellent overlook. To find it just look for the contour lines on the map. The lines are all piled up as the hill is more than a hundred feet up. Definitely worth the effort.

   I also remember a campsite with a huge boulder along the shore. The boulder happens to be balanced just right so you can rock it back and forth about a quarter of an inch. This is an amazing thing as the boulder has to be at lease 20 tons, huge!

   Nina Moose, a great entry point to one of the greatest places on earth.

   @Tom Tomashek: It is truly an amazing place. I remember paddling by the overlook you talk of in hind sight we should have taken the trip in a little slower and explored some these places a little more.

   The boulder next to your campsite is one of the things I love the most about the area. I just can’t get over how beautiful it is to see these HUGE rocks cropping up out of the lake. To think that the glaciers that came through there just dropped off a 20 ton boulder there as if it were nothing.

   I hope your able to get back out again in a coming summer. Because like you say it truly is one of the greatest places on earth.

   Great to hear your story,
   Bill
