Steve and his friends on Fourtown, 9-6-2013
We were on the water at Mudro shortly after 4 and arrived at Fourtown at 6 after a strenuous but successful crossing of three difficult portages. The first nine campsites were taken but we found a great one next to the portage to an unnamed lake next to an outflow. After supper we stayed up till midnight telling stories and watching the campfire. It sprinkled but then stopped. We had scrambled eggs and hash browns for breakfast and headed out to fish the outflow and pond to the east. We had a fish fry at two pm, cooked up our bass. They were delicious. Spent the early evening fishing Fourtown. We caught several very small Walleye and threw them back. At eight thirty we started a fire and roasted the steaks and sweet corn. We also enjoyed salads. The next morning we took a day trip to Horse Lake and enjoyed it's beautiful rocks and beaches for most of the day. However, we couldn't find the fish. Our last day was the journey out. The portages seemed particularly rough on this day. I stumbled and fell down an embankment with a canoe on. No broken bones but pulled a muscle in my leg. Everyone else traversed the difficult passages without a problem.
