1 of 6: Boundary Waters

Three canoes carrying seven people and seven very large packs containing tents and clothes and so much food, you can't even imagine. Before we even put the boats into the water, we had to portage everything for a half mile. But once we accomplished that, we set out into the glorious Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in Minnesota and Canada paddling and portaging through pristine lakes, rivers and forests - to our hearts' content. Blissful.
