Voyageur's National Park & Back to CANADA for 3rd time this trip...
Moved ourselves in to the Voyageur’s National Park in WAY UPPER Minnesota (borders Canada…) Stayed at The Pines at Kabatogama (and boy we will never forget it, as we had so much PINE TAR fall from the trees and on to our RV, and the blow up boat!) Both of us got to ride the monster WALLEYE fish seen in photos below…
Miles and miles and miles of pristine rocky / tree covered shoreline and islands to boat through. We met a “couple” from Minnesota there (gentleman and his niece…) and we shared company on a rented pontoon to visit the ‘apparently famous’ Kettle Falls Hotel and restaurant… he has been coming to the area for several decades and was a certain bonus to have on board the boat as a guide to the area. Had an unusual boat lunch of PBJ and beer…. For dinner we did take out walleye fish sandwiches from the Kettle Falls Hotel (were pretty big and very tasty!)
On Saturday 8/20 we crossed back into Canada at International Falls MN to Fort Francis Canada border crossing…. Oddly it was a longer slower line to go to CANADA, then it was to get back into the USA! Nice ride up to Kenora area (one day stop over to get to Winnipeg) where they are best known for “Huskie the Muskie” 40 foot fish… saw a nice provincial park that was really similar to the Voyageurs National Park back in US.
