    I was just there last weekend, and loved it. Hiked Govt Peak to Mirror, then back along escarpment. Always enjoy your videos!

    5:22 - 5:26 - those few seconds encapsulate what autumn means to me. That low sun angle at the end of day with mega contrast between color and shadows fires me up like nothing else.

    Those views around the lake are so beautiful. The colors were really popping out there. That looks like an awesome place for backpacking.

      The Escarpment Trail and the Big Carp Trail were really nice. Thanks for watching.

    Great video. Love the Porcupine Mountains. I hear they are rerouting the NCT along the escarpment trail and Lake of the clouds.

    Hey there, I'm a new subscriber so I haven't had a chance to look back through your log. Would you mind sharing your pack out for your porcupines trip? I'm planning that trip is my solo next year. Thank you for your video, really good stuff

    Good video, enjoyed this one. Living on Lake Superior myself(Thunder Bay), I always like videos like this one.

    Great job. I've been, with a group, four different times. This makes me want to go on my own and explore some of the trails we usually do not touch. Thanks.

    Cold weather backpacking is the best. Not so much when it is wet.

    Had a great time there in June 2019. We backpacked and used the Mirror Lake Cabin 8 (just 2 of us as it was the only cabin available). Not sure if staying at the cabin on Mirror Lake was better than tent camping on Superior Lake. We camped @ LC river campsite on Superior and I believe LS#11 which featured a private little waterfall right by our campsite along with big smooth rocks we were able to stretch out on while getting some rays and listening to the waves come in. Totally a peaceful place to camp at either of those sites. Thanks for making the video. Looks like you hiked over 40-45 miles in total, but I wonder how many extra miles you hiked while setting up the camera to capture your hiking!

    One of my favorite places also for early spring backpacking, fall backpacking and winter snowshoeing (Don't like the bugs so i stay away June though September ) the cabins are great. If you love Gitchigoomie check out Isle Royale

    You did an excellent job with the editing for your video! It was nice meeting you and hanging out around our campfire after a cool wet day. Our video should be ready within a couple of days. Nothing too fancy with my editing, but it still should be a good video. We will have to keep in touch for a future meetup.

    How did you know your mileage for this trip while you were planning it? I have been staring at a map of the Porkies and I cannot figure out how to read trail distances on this sucker!

  • @dzdaydreamer92

    Where can I get a map of this trail you did?

  • @orangejuli07
    @orangejuli07 4 роки тому

    We're about to do nearly an identical path to you. How many of those water crossings did you have to do? I know the one you did in the rain was a little sketchy because of the weather, we will have dogs with us and I'm just trying to get a mental idea of the whole trip.

    What does the campsites cost to camp at?

    • @MidwestBackpacker
      @MidwestBackpacker  5 років тому

      $15 a night. $8 online reservation fee. I think it was like $8 a night or $33 per year for the car pass. Thanks for watching!
