  • I drive up to The Tent because of heavy rains in northern Minnesota to do a Tent check. Roads have been washed out. Many places have flooded. Water everywhere but the Tent is fine.

    Joe, I think you are correct with the land being more flat where Melissa is from. Ideally, flatter land would have better drainage.
    Also, I think the further north it is more sandy as well.
    I wonder if we have more wetlands and rivers that erode and cause more problems with dirt roads. Bevers are another big problem in minnesota. Just some thoughts.
    I'm happy to see the tent is alright.

    You need a Therma cell or two to clip to your belt they will keep the bugs away from you 15’ each one so if you have one one belt your covered for 15 ‘ 2 will give you 15’ each side 30’ . I use them all the time even hunting and fishing. Outside sitting I put one on the ground each side of me . And they have different types for around home or outside. I bet you could kayak that road where you turned around.

      No, not in that area. At the tent the water flows north towards Canada we are above the divide but on the ride up, all that water will make it to lake Superior. The Mississippi is more towards the center of the state (kind of) in relation to where I was driving, it is west. The tent area is also farther north above where the Mississippi river starts in Itasca State Park.
