It's really hard, but if anyone is planning an IR trip I recommend doing kayaking there. There's a brutal section of portaging you can do via a chain of lakes, which then takes you out to the gorgeous (and dangerous) northern shore. Well worth it but it's also very weather dependent.

Meese stories: The guy who's been to Ryan lake once almost hit a moose on m-95 in rutting season. He was driving a geo metro. The bull moose put an antler through his passenger side door and smashed that, then ripped off his bumper before he got away. I saw a large moose at IR from our campsite on the water, when it shook itself dry after a swim it sounded like a gunshot. Finally, when i was in the boundary waters as a teen, my dad & I were in a canoe and we chased a swimming moose for a while. Whenever we got close it would accelerate super hard and have its front legs come out of the water. There was no plan for if it turned on us. Similarly, decades prior to that my dad had chased a swimming bear in said boundary waters. trevorreznik fucked around with this message at 15:16 on Mar 21, 2024 |

That is really cool. Winter camping can be very hard with the early sunset, so having everything lit up like that is great.
