Paddling 1:10:00 [3]
Fin and I had a quiet morning making breakfast, reading, and hammocking. After lunch, we set out for a tour of Spider Lake. A few campsites were not occupied so we pulled up and explored a couple of them.
It was a cloudy and overcast morning, but a beautiful afternoon, so once we got back from our paddle we went for what might be the last swim of the season!

Wasn't planning to get out this morning as I'm getting ready to leave for a canoe trip with my nephew today (his 4th annual birthday adventure), but I woke up before my alarm and it was a beautiful morning so I toodled around some loops in Breithaupt Park. A bit sad to see how many leaves are already on the ground!

Finley's and my destination for this year was Spider Lake in The Massassauga, accessed from Three Legged Lake, where neither one of us had put in before.
Our first snafu was going to the Three Legged Lake parking lot, not realizing it was still 500m to the lake. We carried a load of gear down before realizing we could have driven there, so took the rest down by car (which involved reloading the boat onto the car).
It was a fairly short paddle across Three Legged Lake to the portage into Spider Lake. It was net downhill in this direction, but we knew what that meant for Sunday! Fin does not love portaging, but knows that it is always worth and it was super stoic about it.
A short paddle past the portage and we were at our site on Spider Lake for the weekend. We had a short happy hour before getting set up before dinner.

Note
A rainy Sunday morning in Michigan meant everyone pretty much packed up and went home, which was a bit of a bummer as I was trying to rally troops for a group hike before I left! So the weekend ended up being much more visiting than running, but was still a great time.

The forecast wasn't initially looking very good for my planned 3AF ride with Alisha and Heather, but the Universe was on our side and we had a beautiful evening for a ride. The trails were so dry that they must have easily absorbed all of the rain as they were not slick at all.
