13 hour drive to Winnepeg Canada. Fly out 1.5 hours to Bolton Lake Lodge, were we fly another 20 minutes to Aswapiswanan Lake (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Bolton+Lake&sll=52.901448,-93.735352&sspn=0.603043,1.2854&ie=UTF8&ll=54.481608,-95.485954&spn=0.145206,0.32135&t=k&z=12&om=1).

Loading our gear onto the puddle jumper from Bolton Lake Logde. From here we fly out to our outpost camp.

I'm told this is called a Rock Chucker, which too me looks like a huge woodchuck

We took a hike up the Rapids / Water falls of the Hungry river and found a desk and chair made out of stone. Crazy natives..

These ones made the cut to take home.

We did one of the "Outpost packages" which has no guide and you gotta pack all your food for the week. http://boltonlake.com/aswapiswanan.html
They got the last week of July available and IMO that would be prime time.
Bolton charged me $1250 per person and after taxes and licences it was $2885.55 for me and my g/f. (plus a ton of new tackle, gas to Winnepeg, and the food we packed).

I got all my GPS coordinates saved yet ;)
I'll PM my cell if you want more details. This was my first time doing this, but the friends I went with do it all the time. They showed me the ropes.

Do those planes land pretty smoothly or is it rough? Always wanted to fly in one.

Looks like a nice trip too!

it was surprisingly smooth... I've landed harder on runways at airports
