I open my door slowly and leave it open I slowly walk up to the house and open the door. Once I'm inside i run to my camera get it out of its bag and take off the lens cap.

I made my way through Farm Lake (which has super clear water) to the first portage into Kitty Lake. The portage was only 100M and was the first of the trip. It took 10 minutes to double carry. I was able to do t...
