Backpacking in Porcupine Lake Wilderness Area - June 2004
This was our first real backpacking trip with all four of us.  Julie carried Forester and I carried the gear for all of us.  It was just a small overnight trip but Ilana walked about 5 miles the second day all by herself!  This trail is incredible.  We had to walk over several beaver dams, some of which weren't very steady.  It looks like fall but is really early June.  It stormed next to us that night.  We could see the lightning and hear the thunder but we didn't get any rain.

Notice Forester at the left below.  He doesn't go to sleep at night without his blanket so we carried it with us.
