Kayakers Circumnavigate Lake Superior

Paddling at sunrise, we passed by Grand Portal in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

Daily Notes, Week of Oct 2, 2006



























Oct. 2 - Big waves kept us onshore for several days in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. That was okay as it was a time for us to rest our arms and use our legs, exploring different trails in the park. Every time we caught a glimpse of the lake, we were awestruck at the strength of the wind and the tumultuousness of the waves.

























We slowed down our paddle strokes to take in the rich shades of brown, tan, white and occasional blue streaks in the cliffs.

Oct. 3 - Exceptional weather, after spending several days wind-bound, allowed us to paddle right up next to the cliffs in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. The cliffs really are painted thanks to water seeping through the rock face and depositing different minerals.

Oct. 4 - Waves, waves and more waves. . . Even though the weather out on the lake occasionally forces us to stay on shore, we'll sometimes catch a break in the wind that allows us to play around in the surf.

Hello and thank you for posting this wonderful trip. I'm a photojournalist in the Navy and have a plan to do the same type of trip with a few friends when I retire in 2011. We would love any advice that you could provide and if there is a way I could contact the group that went on this trip for their advice. Thanks Brien Aho
