Along the Greenstone Trail in the Hall of Birch. Trees on either side leaned across the trail here to create a Grand Hall effect.

Heh! He showed me his bum, too. :lol:

Spotted that bull...and a cow...together. Watched 'em from 60-70 feet away for over a half hour. Lots of pix & video.

Then :45 further down the Greenstone, spotted a cow and a calf!

Lane Cove at sunset.
I'm surprised that I caught the dragonfly in the frame.

Encounter with a cow on our last morning just north of Daisy Farm, June 28, 2002. I posted several other photos of this moose on the old board POW.

This was the last photo before she strolled off after we stood there for 13 minutes!

Butterflies at West Chickenbone Lake at 6:30 AM on June 26, 2002. The swarm was beautiful, but the smell was terrible. They must have been feasting on something that died.

We came off the Greenstone and pumped water in a little stream between lakes Chickenbone and Livermore and saw this frog (or toad - can anybody help?). This little creature sat near us the entire time.

Contemplation on Isle Royale:

I've always liked this photo for some reason. We came off the Greenstone and were pumping water in a little stream between lakes Chickenbone and Livermore.

A 13 year old boy sits quietly contemplating his future in a beautiful spot.

Perhaps he is thinking about how hot it was backpacking all day and how his feet hurt and how he never wants to do this again. Actually, I am quite sure I heard him say those very words in June 2002!

Both boys were on their first High Adventure trip. Both boys are now Eagle Scouts.
