After checking out the pictographs on the northern edge of Lac LaCroix we decided to do a little fishing. Our goal was to head into Lady Boot Bay and use some sonar jigs to try our luck at trout fishing. Well the portage we were planning on using was pretty overgrown, and the bugs were terrible.
So we headed back out into the lake looking for walleye or northern pike. Both Jim and Mat caught very nice Northerns, while I let a huge walleye jump back into the lake while trying to net it. :( Let me tell you its not fun to relive the moment by watching it on video. After we cooked up one of the pike for dinner we came across a beaver munching on a poplar. It was amazing how close we were able to get, and we lucked out with some fantastic video.

Day three on our trip into Lac LaCroix we took off early in the morning in search of Warrior Hill and some vivid pictographs. We paddled across calm waters and under sunny skies. There were a couple of bald eagles chattering away in a tree nearby.
While paddling from boulder bay in Lac LaCroix, we came across a ranger station nestled in the woods at the edge of the lake. Tim a Wilderness Ranger who is based out of the LaCroix ranger station in Cook, MN was out working around the building and asked to see our permit..
After showing him our documentation I asked if we could get an interview. Tim was gracious enough to oblige and gave us the skinny on what goes on behind the scenes to keep camp sites and portages up and running as well as enforcing the rules and regulations that keep the BWCAW a quite place in nature we can all escape to.
