We also talk about how we set up our camp with our canvas tent and titanium wood stove as well as that basics of filtering water in the winter.  Join us on day two of our winter camping trip into Basswood Lake.

We have a canvas tent and a titanium stove for our shelter.  With our sleds loaded up with warm gear we trudge across frozen lakes and snow covered portages into the night.

The temperatures were quite comfortable with forecasts of high 30s to low 40s.  We caught a glimps of a lone wolf lurking along the edge of Wood Lake right at dusk.  We hiked on following fresh wolf tracks all the way to Good Lake where we set up camp for the evening.
